My recent mistake ( https://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg57919.html ) shows that one _cannot_ create a scheduled action on behalf of someone else, since there's no rule allowing one to do so. Am I missing something (again)? But the rest of this message assumes one (A) _can_ create a scheduled action on behalf of another (B). I don't see that the action taken would be by B as emself. The rule says that the scheduled action's "creator [presumably B] performs actions as if e had published its Payload at that time" of the trigger. Even so, it's not clear to me that B performs actions as if e had published the payload _on eir own behalf_ at that time. The rule doesn't certainly say so. Quite possibly, the rule means that B performs actions as if e had published the payload _via agent A_ at that time. (Of course, that's what you're protoproposing anyway, so it sounds good to me. I'm just saying I'm not convinced it's necessary.) Yours truly, msh210
