Thanks for the quick response Phil,

For a more precise description of what I need:

nathan@??? goes to nathan@???
jenny@??? goes to jenny@???
etc

Off the top of your head, do you know how to do this?

I'm a total newbie. Where should I look to find info
on "directors" such as "smartuser"?
Where would I find the FAQ you refered to?

Thanks,
Nathan
