Newbie: Mailet only for incoming mails

[Raied Naieem <na...@fileants.com>]

Hi guys, 
   I have written a mailet to filter attachments. I would like the
attachment to be filtered only for incoming mails. Any idea how this can be
done?
I've tried putting the mailet with (match="RecipientIsLocal") but then
you'll have the following scenario:
   Send a mail with:
	To: myAccount@localServer.com, myAccount@external.com

The mail will be sent to the mailet and will be filtered for both
recepients.
I've been fighting for weeks now. Acctually in the specification of James it
says that mailets are only meant to process _incoming_ mails. Am I doing
anything wrong?

Here is the only mailet part I've changed in config.xml (the root process).

Cheers and Thanks, 
Raied

Thats the correct behaviour, it looks like you need to make your mailet
distinguish between a version for local delivery and one for the remote
recipient.
