The "queue" is a regular MTA mail queue for a system, not a user mailbox or maildir. So there are in fact two mail queues, one for MailScanner, and one for the MTA: 1. The message is received by the incoming MTA and queued in the incoming queue. 2. MailScanner retrieves the message from the incoming queue, scans it, and sends it to the outgoing MTA queue. 3. The outgoing instance of the MTA retrieves the message from the outgoing queue and delivers it accordingly. Casey -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
