SpamAssassin + fetchmail + procmail + Evolution is great. One of the big mistakes people make when using spam filtering is to consider it a binary filter: spam or not spam. I have my spam sorted in two categories: marginal and high. I only weekly check my marginal folder, if at all. The high folder do not check at all. The rare false positives you talk about end up in the marginal folder. -Arthur _______________________________________________ evolution maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/evolution
