that is great response. I was about to try it already but I have another question before:
When I setup the script I choose Addressbook and Mailbox.
Does this mean the mail is filtered by one addressbook (the chosen) only or can I set different addressbooks with different mailboxes.
The mail is filtered by one address book, you can create multiple copies of the script under different names and run it that way. The problem with extending the script to handle multiple address books is that there is no command within PocoScript to determine which address book(s) a person is in (this can be done but it takes a lot more code). If there were the script would also have to allow for a precedence to be established.

That is correct, it would be quite simple to modify the script so that it either supported different incoming/outgoing mailboxes.

The command used in the configuration does not allow you to specify an mailbox that hasn't already been created. If you run the script without using the configuration then a "Friends" mailbox will be created if you don't already have one.

Thanks Olaf
No problems with comparisons, any software product will grow with competition and can learn from it's competitors.
