Not using a mail client, .. the 'processing' is parsing the script for a 
match string - in this case:

qq(server.domainvend.com/Order.aspx)

The match misses when an email first arrives, yet I can forward the same 
email back to that alias from any server here and it works just fine. My 
only theory is that the Windoze script is embedding CRLFs that get 
converted to NLs saving locally, .. but I think the pattern *should* with 
with either, I think.

Got that setup, .. won't see any emails until next week, however.
