OK, but Imail allows you to filter on the TO or the complete HEADERS,
but not the CC: (from within the Imail Admin GUI).  How can I set up a
rule to filter on CC:?  I assume I will never be able to filter on BCC:
since that doesn't show in the headers.  I know I can edit the filter
file manually and use regexps, but I am NOT in my comfort zone when it
comes to writing regexps.  Can someone give me an example of an Imail
rule that would match "@example.com" in the CC: line?

I'm not sure what you are trying to accomplish here, but it sounds like
you need three rules, one for To, one for CC, and one for BCC.

Or did I miss something?

Wow, did I stump the list?  No one has a way to make this work?

Subject: [IMail Forum] Imail rules on Copyall account

Say I set up rules on the copyall account to send all emails to anyone
@example.com to the [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailbox.  If I use a "To" rule,
I miss everything sent with cc: or bcc:.  If I match @example.com in the
full headers, I risk confusion and mail going to the wrong mailboxes.
For example, say I host both example.com and example.net, and archive
email for both.

If someone at example.com sends an email to someone at example.net, the
message goes into both archives, even though we are supposed to be
archiving only received email, not sent (not really such a bad thing).

If I, as their host, send an email to my boss with a subject containing
example.com, it goes into example.com's archive (really bad news).  I'm
sure there are many other ways for messages to get stored in the wrong
mailbox based on searching the full headers for @example.com.  Is there
a way to do this right?

Alternatively, I have a postfix gateway and have experimented
successfully with recipient_bcc_maps That works exactly the way I want
it to, but of course it doesn't see any mail that is local to the Imail
server.  So intra-domain email is not archived.  If Imail rules won't
work right, is there any way to force Imail to send ALL email through a
gateway, even local mails that will just come right back to Imail?
