Greetings,

I'm coming in a little late on this thread -- been away from the keyboard
for a couple of days -- but I was the one who wrote about the
draft/forwarding bug initially in January 2001 (please see
http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg29148.html and
subsequent messages). This resulted in Ipswitch adding a Knowledge Base
article (http://support.ipswitch.com/kb/IM-20010123-DM02.htm) and a
paragraph in the IMail Server 7 manual
(http://www.ipswitch.com/support/IMail/guide/imailug7/usermaila7.html) to
explain the issue.

Unfortunately, it seems that some people are still struggling with this
feature/bug and Ipswitch did not offer an explicit workaround, as far as I
know. However, Sanford Whiteman offered a perfectly good one last Thursday:
http://www.mail-archive.com/imail_forum%40list.ipswitch.com/msg50751.html
and I hope that the Ipswitch folks who are reading this list will include it
in the aforementioned KB article and a future revision of the User Manual.

Combining the use of MAIN.FWD with disallowing hyphens in user names (for
security reasons) should solve the entire issue.

Guy
