I've got a set of procmail routines for this, but they're triggered based on a counter -- I think less processing when testing for archiving triggering. Some explaination is at: http://www.wecs.com/spam.htm#epilogue And the routines can be downloaded at: ftp://ftp.wecs.com/procmail/archcron.zip If they are not what you need, they may be a starting point. Probably don't want to get to far off topic on this -- that is, "to procmail or not to procmail" may raise more questions, than answers. But according to a little googling, exim, cpanel, and procmail, are uncontraversially do-able: http://info.ccone.at/INFO/Mail-Archives/procmail/Mar-2003/msg00002.html Bryan > > LS > > ------------------------------------------------------- > This SF.net email is sponsored by: IBM Linux Tutorials. > Become an expert in LINUX or just sharpen your skills.

This happens only when someone falls and becomes so preoccupied with something else that they forget that they are falling, and therefore are no longer doing it. Flying is just a permanent state of falling, minus the hitting the ground part. - Douglas Adams http://www.wecs.com/content.htm This signature file is generated by Pick-a-Tag !
