First of all let's be clear-- I am not bouncing messages. That would imply that the message is being rejected during the original SMTP conversation. Messages processed by the inbound rules filter have already been accepted by [my] SMTP server. So now we are in post delivery mode.
Because the filter kept the message from going into the List Group's mailbox, it (the message) gets disposed of in one of 3 ways; moved to a local mailbox, forwarded to another address or deleted. I chose to forward the message to the Program Alias that implements my VB Program. In response to your question I get the return address using the from header in the orginal message. I am essentially sending a new message to the original sender informing them of the their rules violation. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:IMail_Forum-owner@;list.ipswitch.com] On Behalf Of Guy Isabel Sent: Saturday, November 09, 2002 4:29 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Re[2]: [IMail Forum] Auto-Reply for List Rules Violations Jeff, How did you manage to get the "MAIL FROM:" and "RCPT TO:" which are part of the SMTP envelope?
