confirm being added/removed from a list. I put in some logic in my RCPT and
DATA templates that gives anything addressed to "list_" to a special
processor template (which takes care of all list commands). So
[EMAIL PROTECTED] would go to the list processor which
can then parse the To address and get the command, list name, and user ID
(the command manager also interprets more traditional-style commands in the
body of a message addressed to list_command).

[EMAIL PROTECTED] and use the SMTPFROM var to determine the
user to unsubscribe. Also, the only way to parse the SMTPTO is with CFML as
iMS does not do this for you.

several people and I want to allow them to unsubscribe by clicking a email
link something like [EMAIL PROTECTED] where the xxx is
that individuals userID. And I want to set up a user in FusionMail for
processing this email address, Lets say that the user is
[EMAIL PROTECTED] Can I in the RCPT or DATA template
parse out the userID, place it in a variable and reset the email address to
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ? Or is there a way fusionMail/iMS
allows to handle this? This would allow me to verify the userID with the
smtpfrom address and then run a template to unsubscribe the user.
