Um... install the port, create a .forward file, and set up .procmailrc? There are more complex ways to use it, but I haven't tried them. I looked at some "packaged" versions of procmail setups, and found them too complex to mess with--scoring and weighting and stuff. My setup just filters things, and does a pretty good job of it. The nice thing about procmail is that it has all the hard stuff already handled--dealing with headers or the body of the message, locking, and so on. -Warren Block * Rapid City, South Dakota USA To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
