copy one users sent items to another

Hi,

i have been asked if it is possible for one user to get a copy of everything another user sends. I know about archiving, but that is for all users, i only want to do it for one.

The user sending would only use swa.

Is it possible to do something like this on the server side? sxaa doesn't look like it will help me.

Has anyone done this? any suggestions?

Thanks.

The only place I can see this happening is on sendmail. You can use a milter to trap that user's email. However, this does not address the issue for internal users.

I would use the archive, then pass it through a script that checks the sender and discard the others, but it sounds very cumbersome to me.

Actually using milter is not very hard at all. I use mime-defang to add a BCC to every outgoing email many of our employees send.

I really don't want to rework my milter setup and change to mimedefang for one user at one of my clients, but thanks for the info.
