Yes, the configuration seems odd or interesting as you said.
 The
idea behind this is:
 
 - Before scripts will be use for
filtering spam, when they have SPAM
 header. Not problem at it.


 - User scripts will be used for vacation messages. These are
created
 with Squirrelmail and avelsize plugin (user interaction)
 
 - After scripts will be used for doing redirections, such as
 forwarding mail to a blackberry account(not problem at it) or

forwarding to another user account (in the same domain, the problem is
 here).
 
 The reason not to put the redirections or
forwarding in users scripts
 is to avoid users deleting redirections
and have in one file all the
 redirections.
 
 I also try
to use redirections from avelsieve plugin (0.9.9.9) and it
 works the
forwarding but it didn't work the keep command, the mail is

forwarded but the user doesn't have a copy of it.
 
 I will
investigate your advice for envelope or try to use user's scripts.


 I didn't know about original headers, if this in RFC sieve
documents?
 
 Thanks Timo and thanks Stephan for the tips.

 Andrés.
