OP here. I think I have found a much more basic problem, I don't think a send-hook can change the To: address. So, next question (which replaces the first one), how can I change a To: header dependent on the contents of the To: header? What I am trying to do is to change the destination address when I get messages from addresses like '+447537170394 <s...@aa.net.uk>' because messages back to that address disappear into a black hole. -- Chris Green
