Hi Dennis,

Thanks for your prompt reply.

I don't get this bit, which seems to be stopping me from understanding what
you are doing.

The file contains:
To:  *@usherbrooke.ca           /quarantaine/usherbrooke
To:  default                    /quarantaine/autres

Then below that you use "quarantaine" a couple more times, is that just a
typo?

Cheers,

Peter
