RE: [PHP] PHP mail redirect ??

OK, now we are getting somewhere. On my machines, this is referred to as an email forwarder and yes SMTP handles it, however, I am not sure how you are handling your spam detection. On my servers I use "spam assassin" and it's detection is not fool proof. If people send images in their email with a signature, spam assassin will sometimes miss identify their email as spam. I would check the documentation for your spam filter for most of the "redirection" you would like to do.
