(some filters snipped) You did not specify, what to do with the messages, that *don't* fit into your filter-patterns. So I suggest the following (of course you'll need to adjust those): # deliver personal mail to local account fpage if personal then deliver fpage finish endif # this takes care of emails from cron, uucp, news, etc. if $sender_address matches "(uucp|news|root)@thebetteros" then save $home/mail/statistics finish endif # *LAST* filter pattern in~/.forward as safety-net # if filter reaches this point and mail is still undelivered: # save to abnormal and email root (it's alias) about this if not delivered then mail text "Abnormal Delivery! $header_subject" save $home/mail/abnormal endif Tell us, if it works. Kind regards Frederick -- Linux *is* user-friendly. It's just a little picky about it's friends.
