At the "rcpt to" where the test is done, it is too early to check the received headers in the data as it hasn't been done yet. Waiting to recieve the data makes the test equivalent of removing the user anyway. So for those of us behind gateways, the setting is useless. Best just let the gateway deal with the "user not known". klint. +---------------------------------------+-----------------+ : Klint Gore : "Non rhyming : : EMail : [EMAIL PROTECTED] : slang - the : : Snail : A.B.R.I. : possibilities : : Mail University of New England : are useless" : : Armidale NSW 2351 Australia : L.J.J. : : Fax : +61 2 6772 5376 : : +---------------------------------------+-----------------+ This is the discussion list for the IMS Free email server software.
