But 'lsearch' for what? I can't use 'support' because I'd need to list all
the users, and that's what I'm trying to avoid.
Hmm, having said that. I could add an extra entry for each user which
includes a domain. The 'support' address would be a redirect router which
does an '@@lsearch' (I think) lookup (or @@cdb) to only use the keys with a
domain. Email to individual domain users would search the same file but look
for keys without the domain.
Thanks, I'll try that.
John.
