To extend that answer a bit: I run fetchmail to get my email from various and sundry places to my local box; I have a ~/.procmailrc to engage SpamAssassin in checking each mail as fetchmail gets it. I have those marked as spam into a Spam mbox; I comb it thru once every day or so for titles or senders which may have been false positives. It's a happy thing. --j -- Jim Meyer, Geek At Large [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ evolution maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/evolution
