Ok that's what got me; you have area to decide what to do with unrouted mail. So, for this to work Karl, you'd need the same I guess. Hey I have that feature and didn't even know it, I didn't know I could add a custom message. (Yeah I've seen yours many times...remember when you change emails and many refuse to delete your old addresses from their address book, and keep using it? They send email to us via CC: and when I "reply all" it goes to your old address). -Clint

Try it.... send an email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] The first part is the typical section for an unrouteable email...the latter part is what I had added.. Nothing to do with automatic forwarder.. Jeff Dougherty www.intrepid-video.com www.tech-repair.net ----- Original Message ----- From: "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" It is your only expense if you can find a free webhost with AR's. www.Doteasy.com is only one I Can think of right now that has TRUE DOMAIN NAME hosting (no subdomains) but I don't know if they have any AR's, they don't have SPAM filters. Of course through them it costs more to register a domain ($19 last time I checked) and $35 to TRANSFER an EXISTING domain to them, both one-time fees. Now that I think about it, I don't know how Jeff did this since if you delete an email account(s) (like he did) I don't see how you can set up an AR for it! This has got me confused now....you can set up an AR even in OE or probably other email programs as well, but I don't understand how (again) if you delete an email account, how you can then setup an AR for > > recipients of s p a m.

Is it possible to do your s p a m bouncing thing without having a hosting service (more expense) which has an AutoResponder function?
