Hmm, I replaced Exim with MasqMail, because I couldn't prevent it from
dropping/bouncing mail whenever there is something misconfigured at either
end. However, I now pass mail directly from fetchmail to procmail, so I
can return back to Exim to handle outgoing mail.

I am talking about that challenge/response spam filter I mentioned when I
first came here. I dropped all hopes that procmail and shell could be ever
used reliably for this task. The procmail version is burning and I must
rewrite it in Mahogany ASAP. The question about MUA/MTA/MDA/proxy was here
before. I need something client-side, because mail server is centralized
(at least mine is centralized) and I have no control over it. Proxy is
usable, but I think that simpler spam filters should be integrated into
MUA for extra reliability.
