Mail bounces

I had a look at IIUG, but did not find the option - how do I reset my account so that it doesn't say "informix-list-bounces" anymore, but "owner-informix-list" again ? I am still receiving my mail, but my mail rule did not pick this up, as the sender changed. I had an issue December where my inbox got full, and now my mail has changed from all the bouncing ....

(apologies for that) Hi Dirk, Which mail agent do you use to read your email? The mail rule is normally local to your receiving machine. In Thunderbird, for example, when you're not using a 'compose' window, the Tools menu has a Message Filters option (I'm using MacOS X 10.4.4 and T'bird 1.0.7), and I'd edit the rule their if I filtered by sender. If you use Gmail, then there's a filters option near the top - they're quite good about allowing you trial runs. If you use Mozilla or Netscape, you're likely to find that they are similar to T'bird. If you use ... well, you get the idea by now. The one place where you don't set it is the IIUG. -- Jonathan Leffler #include <disclaimer.h> Email: jleffler@earthlink.net, jleffler@us.ibm.com Guardian of DBD::Informix v2005.02 -- http://dbi.perl.org/
