Yes sorry.. new to this part of life.. so much terminology and things to
learn in a very short period of time.. fearing the brain might go POP at
any second :)

I read on the Cobalt site to  put a .forward file in the users root.. the
Forward Email TO in the GUI is left blank forcing it to look in the users
root for more instructions, if there is no .forward there it will dump the
mail on the server int he users box. The doc at Cobalt specifically said
this was for the RaQ2 only.. but I figured what the hell if it works... and
it did

when I went to the Cobalt site, clicked support, then KnowledgeBase, the
click Email, (Frequently searched words).. it comes up in that list..

Nodding here also.. not sure if its something Sage did during the setup or
a kink in the GUI that I ran into.. which if it can go wrng.. it will
happen to me.. I never get normal problems :)

That is the main IP number on the machine

I hope so :)
