Kmail doesn't show your email as having an attachment. Would that be the gpg? At any rate, almost 99% of the spam I get is HTML, but I get your drift of letting SA handle the catagorization of email. Like I said, I'm a total nube at this, so I appreciate the tips. I'd also like to dump the false bounces I'm getting flooded with due to the viruses. I'm running unstable and my exim is version: 3.36-8. Jeff Elkins -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
