Hi, Along with our move to Scalix, our company is undergoing a name change. We are currently accepting mail for olddomain.com and newdomain.com. Our mail exchanger is forwarding mail from both to the actual accounts on our scalix server: user@newdomain.com.
What I would like to do is to setup an autoreply telling users to send mail to user@newdomain.com. I only want to send this autoreply if the mail was addressed to user@olddomain.com. This is easily done in the webmail interface rules wizard by enabling the condition: recipient address is user@olddomain.com. I would like to be able to do this command line for the rest of the company though as I do not have access to their webmail accounts. I am familiar with the syntax sxaa --user user --reply reply.txt. But is it possible to add the recipient condition this way?

According to the manual included on the wiki page for sxaa, you can do some conditions from the command line.

Yes I read that, but no mention of how to add a 'recipient is' condition.

From the docs....

Specifying Conditions
---------------------
It is also possible to specify a simple condition to apply to a rule. There are a number of possible conditions: --subject, --sender, --header and --itemclass.

sxaa --user user --file "foldername" --subject "SPAM"
sxaa --user user --file "foldername" --sender "dave@scalix.com"
sxaa --user user --file "foldername" --header "X-Spam-Status:***"
sxaa --user user --file "foldername" --itemclass "IPM.Schedule"

For each of the conditions, a wildcard is applied. So, the example rules above should be read as "CONTAINS" the specified string.
NB: Because of the way that sxaa specifies a wildcard internally, if you need to use a '%' character in your string, you should also use the --wildcard option as follows:

sxaa --user user --file "foldername" --subject "90%" --wildcard "@"

This indicates that the "@" character should be used as an internal wildcard character. Obviously, choose a character you do not need to specify in your strings.

So the header you'd want looks like this:

To: name <someone@domain.com>

So Something like this should work...

sxaa --user user --reply --text file.txt --header "domain.com"
