It's all starting to make sense. Guess I'll just have to evaluate the tradeoffs.

The only thing you could do is find some way to split the messages into one copy per recipient. Imail does not handle them this way, but some MTA's do. You could set up your MX server(s) to be a gateway box that uses an MTA that splits the message to per recipient (note: this still won't help with aliases). I have done some testing with Xmail Server and it does handle each recipient one by one, creating a new copy of the message for each recipient. Downside is, in your example, even if you whitelist user2, Declude will run all tests on twice on essentially the same message. Once for user1 and once for user3. If you didn't whitelist, then it is three times. i.e., if you have a heavy load it will increase it.

The problem is I have an executive user who does not understand the flagging at all. They panic when they see any indication that the mail has been scanned and are afraid that important mail is going to be deleted. (I upgraded to the pro version to try and solve this problem by enabling user level controls.) If [EMAIL PROTECTED] has all Actions set to "WARN", but the global setting is "HEADER" will they see the Header text?

Declude JunkMail will combine the settings the best that it can, erring on the side of assuming the E-mail is spam. The idea is that if someone sends legitimate mail to multiple recipients and one doesn't want it, it's up to the sender to take care of the problem (they can just send one at a time, for example). >For example: An email is sent to ><mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>[EMAIL PROTECTED], ><mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>[EMAIL PROTECTED] and ><mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>[EMAIL PROTECTED] >The following files exist: >c:\Imail\Declude\$default$.junkmail >c:\Imail\Declude\example.com\$default$.junkmail (Which is identical to the >global file c:\Imail\Declude\$default$.junkmail.) >c:\Imail\Declude\example.com\user2.junkmail > >I want <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>[EMAIL PROTECTED] to get the >email.

That's correct. The WHITELIST action will make sure that the E-mail is received. If you have a sender that is sending mail that some of your customers want and others do not, they have a serious problem. The best thing to do is get the people who do not want the E-mail to unsubscribe. -Scott --- Declude JunkMail: The advanced anti-spam solution for IMail mailservers.
