>> second: read the reply i gave the OP which *was* helpful Not sure if *you're doing it wrong* was helpful but we put the barracuda front facing which solved the problem. I tried several body checks but I don't think that would have help either way. Since the reject requeues the original message with a new queueid, I thought the body_checks would have been triggered. After further reading, I'm not so sure the content filters are triggered on a reject. Anyway, it works well front facing and my eyes are tired from reading.
