Hello Wayne, Historians believe that Friday, November 2, 2001 at 6:11 AM was when, Wayne Quigley [WQ] typed the following:

What exactly do you want the filter to do? If it's a fairly general task, then you can try to use some other tools to do the job. What I had in mind is this: 1. Put all expired addresses in a "BlackBook" address book group. 2. Use the Windows Scheduler program to add an address to the AB group when it expires. 3. Have your TB filter check all mail against the Black-book group. The second step can be done two ways. The first is to create an LDIF file for each person, then in your Windows scheduler, use the /Import command-line option to import it into the black book at the correct time/date. The second way is to use the command-line option to create a notification message to the disabled address. You can then create an outgoing (or incoming) filter to find these messages and add the address to the black book. If you like the methods above, let us know and we can help you work out the details. BTW, is there any reason why you can't use your server software to expire an address at a given time? -- Thanks for writing, Januk Aggarwal Using The Bat! 1.54/10 under Windows 98 4.10 Build 2222 A I have an imaginary friend who refuses to play with me. -- ________________________________________________________ Archives : http://tbudl.thebat.dutaint.com Moderators : mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] TBTech List: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Latest Vers: 1.53d FAQ : http://faq.thebat.dutaint.com
