Bob - Did it - Works great!  would love to have a copy of the  .bat file, cause I can 
see this becoming tedious administratively.  Thanks to you, Ken and the others for 
help on this.

> Pat,
We do what you are mentioning.  In each user's directory we have a virusbox.fwd that 
is a forward rule for the routing the caught e-mail.  In the .fwd file we have the 
e-mail address [EMAIL PROTECTED] which is an alias that routes to the virusbox 
directory of the people we want to get the message.  It works for us.

We also have a batch process that adds the virusbox.fwd entry to each user except the 
users we want to receive the messages.  If you want the .bat file I can send it.  We 
have the batch process scheduled to run nightly so new users have the forward rule 
added to their directory.

____________________________________________________________I have in place a set of 
inbound mail rules that dumps qualifying inbound traffic via the :nul box.  It works 
well, but I think its also catching legitimate traffic as well. Creating a mailbox 
with a forward does send me a copy of all dumped mail, but also leaves a copy of it 
behind in the individual user's box.  I've had a few users discover their "extra" 
mailbox that gets created via the web interface and have fortunately been able to stop 
them from opening their "extra" mail (groan). Its only a matter of time before someone 
activates one of these friggin' things....

I would like to have all of the suspect mail forwarded to a holding mailbox for 
inspection and deleted from the user's source mailbox from whence it came.  So far, no 
dice.

Suggestions?
