The Cyrus Murder does not provide the functionality you are looking for (though the frontends can fail and be brought on-line at will, and the only people who lose are those who are currently connected to that frontend). The Murder is basically a very smart form of IMAP proxy, which allows for shared mailboxes instead of limiting a user to just their INBOX hierarchy. -Rob -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Rob Siemborski * Andrew Systems Group * Cyert Hall 207 * 412-268-7456 Research Systems Programmer * /usr/contributed Gatekeeper
