Alternatively, you can check destinations and send on-the-fly. Don't forget deleting the e-mail from the server - I don't remember if it's a setting for retrieving (flush) or if it's a distinct action for POP3. Alternatively use an IMAP account and set the mail as read and move old mail to folders based on date (monthly archives). Obviously, this is a personal suggestion for a simple server - you could then check from outside using IMAPS. >IF IT IS SEND TO EMAILS IN DB > >--> mail(blah) > >Therefore if an email is sent to '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' then it would be forwarded >to everybody in the email db.
