As am I. The point is: I've already installed an MTA, why not use it to it's fullest? Stated differently: using getmail to do spam filtering is a good idea if you did *not* install a full-featured MTA, but why use getmail to do something that postfix can do, when postfix is already installed? - -- Ron Johnson, Jr. Jefferson LA USA Give a man a fish, and he eats for a day.
