simplest way would be (as root): mutt -f /path/to/mailbox T.<enter>;bnewadddress@newdomain<enter> i.e. "load the mailbox in mutt, tag all messages, then bounce tagged messages to newaddress@newdomain". no need to write a script for a once-off. craig -- craig sanders <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Fabricati Diem, PVNC. -- motto of the Ankh-Morpork City Watch -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
