Good idea unless you have 18,000

Host
On 13:17 05/17/2001 -0700, it would appear that Domain

IMail

User's Guide page 72, Number 8, Third
Paragraph.
I quote, "If this rule is for a
host, in the "send to the mailbox" box, enter the user ID to which
messages meeting the rule criteria will be sent.".
I tried that... created a user ID called "spam", now imail
is creating a "spam" folder in each user folder that meets the criteria
instead of sending it to the account "spam".
I don't want to send it to "NUL", at least not
yet... Does anybody know if IpSwitch is going to fix this? Does
any body have an EASY way to send to an account instead of creating new
mailboxes all over the place?
This is something that, in my opinion, needs to be fixed, created or
whatever ASAP!
After an
hour on the phone, half of which I was on hold, the tech told me that the
book is wrong. To bad... it shouldn't
be.
user ID should read mailbox
All you need
do fix your situation is add a spam.fwd file to each user's directory, EXCEPT
to that of user "spam". Within the spam.fwd file (which is a simple text
file) add the following text: [EMAIL PROTECTED] replacing
yourdomain.com with your domain of course.
Doing a simple search using
rules spam on the knowledge base turned up this:
http://support.ipswitch.com/kb/IM-19980116-DD08.htm
It
never hurts to check the knowledge base before posting a problem
here.
