Hi all, what a great forum, just discovered it from the newsletter! :)

I have a few domains, the key ones all forward mail to one priority POP account which I monitor.

However, every day I use a slim client [Mailwasher] to check and delete all the source accounts.

My question is, does a method exist to delete the mail in the primary account once it has forwarded to the priority account which I download and monitor more closely.

The only thing I can think of is setting up domain forwarders for the source email addresses, without POP3 mail accounts, would result in the mail being forwarded without being stored. Would that help?

Oh good idea, thanks for the tip I'll try that! :)

Works a treat, thank you Peter.

My problem was cerebral, not realising that a forwarder could be created without first having a POP3 account, very smooth! :)
