If you have administration rights at the server, you should try to implement this as server side solutions instead of doing them in SquirrelMail. I don't know what OS you're running at your server, so I'm going to assume UNIX (or something similar). One well known solution to fetch mail from other servers is a program called Fetchmail, and there's a SquirrelMail frontend for it. http://fetchmail.berlios.de/ http://squirrelmail.org/plugin_view.php?id=50 When it comes to filtering, try Procmail, Maildrop, or TimSieved, also with a SquirrelMail frontend. http://www.procmail.org/ http://www.courier-mta.org/maildrop/ http://www.cyrusoft.com/sieve/ http://squirrelmail.org/plugin_view.php?id=210 http://squirrelmail.org/plugin_view.php?id=73 Sincerely, Fredrik ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
