divert email, like archive, possible?

[Jeff A. Earickson]

Julian,

    The boss just asked me if I can divert all email inbound from
a badguy to a certain account here, and save it to an alternate
mailbox.  We have a case of a nasty divorce, where the harasser is
elsewhere and the harassee works here.  We want to divert and save
the messages from the harasser and not have the harassee see them.
And we want other messages to the harassee flow normally.

Thinking that the Archive feature would do the trick, I set up an
archive ruleset for testing:

    From: joeblow at colby.edu and To: jaearick at colby.edu /var/mail/a/archive
    default  no

Then I logged on as joeblow and sent a test email to myself.  Archiving
worked beautifully -- it snagged the test message to the archive file, and
let everything else pass on.  BUT it also delivered the test message into
my mailbox; not what I wanted in this case.  Any way to divert specific
to/from email messages with MailScanner?
