Ah a fellow alias'r :) I wrote a quick script that i used to add aliases in a snap. I use aliases to procmail scripts instead of directly to internal users. I have a template procmail script. I simply type "crmail user" and it takes the template and "user", creates the procmail script and the alias to it, then runs newaliases..... *poof* I tell boss it will be a while to setup ;) removing...well yeah that is manual. :( ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email sponsored by: Free pre-built ASP.NET sites including Data Reports, E-commerce, Portals, and Forums are available now.
