Thanks Woody for your help

Can i just clarify something - I dont want the unresolved emails forwarded
to a mailbox. I want them to be displayed in a public folder with access by
all users. Its a bit odd I agree, but we get a lot of genuine emails that
are just badly addressed, and we have taken a decision to deal with them,
rather than just bounce them.

Does your suggestion still hold good, because I did have the folder working
OK, and I am sure I did not create additional SMTP servers. I accidently
deleted the folder, and when I recovered it, it had the word recovered in
brackets against the name, and since then has not worked. i have gont
through the system as as far as I can see I have renbamed everything back to
its original (with the word recovered) but its still not working

Thanks

Alex
