Filter incoming message

Hi,   Not being a programming guru, does this mean that if I put:   | case "$SENDER" in [EMAIL PROTECTED]) exit 99 ;; *) exit 0 ;; esac   would do the reverse effect of excluding incoming messages for [EMAIL PROTECTED]?   KF   "John R. Levine" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote in message [EMAIL PROTECTED]">news:[EMAIL PROTECTED]... > >> Let's say I have a user "[EMAIL PROTECTED]", whose home directory is > >> /home/mailuser.  I want to set things up so that mailuser only accepts > >> messages from one particular e-mail address.  In other words, if the sender > >> is any other address besides [EMAIL PROTECTED], mailuser will silently > >> throw the message away.  If the message is from [EMAIL PROTECTED], it > >> completes the instructions in mailuser's .qmail file (which right now > >> forwards to three other addresses). > > It's very easy.  Put this as the first line in the .qmail file: > > | case "$SENDER" in [EMAIL PROTECTED]) exit 0 ;; *) exit 99 ;; esac > > The exit 99 tells qmail to skip the rest of the .qmail file. > > -- > John R.
