Very simply, "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" != "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" The envelope from is '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' but the Header From is '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' They are not the same, so the rule does not match. (You coded the rule to look at the header 'From' address). So you either need to change your rule to match the header from address or code it to look for the envelope from address. Note that depending upon how SA is integrated into your mail system, the enveope from address may not be readily available to SA. -- Dave Funk University of Iowa <dbfunk (at) engineering.uiowa.edu> College of Engineering 319/335-5751 FAX: 319/384-0549 1256 Seamans Center Sys_admin/Postmaster/cell_admin Iowa City, IA 52242-1527 #include <std_disclaimer.h> Better is not better, 'standard' is better.
