Hello Wilfred!

In the between. :)
In HPT you can intercept the single message unpacked from the bundle before the
delivery to the message base, there you are in GOD MODE [(c) DOOM] and you can
do all that you want with perl scripts.

You're right, but there should be someting that is injected by the main node to
know where the message is originated and not forgeable by a user editor
(BBS/Point/JAMNNTPD and so on), do you know about something like this?
Are you sure that the first node of the path can be rewritten?
Many Thanks! :)
Ciao!
