Hello Jim,
But I think it it is the archive, I used the Store command. There
are not any pop accounts for this domain on this server, we are just
passing them through here to be scanned.
So how do I get hundreds of messages in the archive or the quarantine
sent out to an address? Or, saved in a format I can copy to the
workstation and import?
