Well you already have one, right? You would have to or else SIMS won't recognize the domains as local. That's what I meant by the above: if the lines that you *already have* which map accounts in each domain to local accounts do so in a regular fashion (like adding '.something' after or 'something-' before) then you can have one more line that catches anything matching what happens when support@somedomain is passed through your router. >Our router entries have gotten so big that we need to trim them down in >order for Communigator to allow us to make changes.

The only way to do it logically is to rely on how your router maps secondary domain accounts to local account names. If if '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' is currently being translated in a regular fashion so that it maps to local account names which can be expressed as *-support or support-* or support.* or *+support or some other wildcard pattern, one more line will do it. -- Bill Cole [EMAIL PROTECTED] ############################################################# This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>.
