Here, I'll "draw" it out: ISP (where mail sits) | FETCHMAIL (grabs the mail from the ISP) | PROCMAIL (filters incoming mail through rules for spam) | ANTIVIRUS (whatever AV you use, scans the mail) | (POSTFIX/SENDMAIL) (mail gets tossed here and in user's mbox) Each client machine can access the mail from the mail machine using either POP3 or IMAP - if they use IMAP, then the mail always lives on the mail machine (nice space saver) When the end-user sends an email, it goes back to the mail machine, processed, av-scanned, then sent out (whenever it is setup to connect to the internet or a remote SMTP server) Simple. Easy as pulling a greased string outta cat's ass. -- Thu Jul 17 14:15:01 EST 2003 14:15:01 up 3 days, 6:18, 2 users, load average: 0.20, 0.22, 0.18 ----------------------------------------------------------------- | __ __ |kuhn media australia | | /-oo /| |'-. |http://kma.0catch.com | | .\__/ || | | |================================| | _ / `._ \|_|_.-' |stephen kuhn | | | / \__.`=._) (_ | email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] | ----------------------------------------------------------------- linux user #:267497 linux machine #:194239 * MDK 9.1+ & RH 9 Mandrake Linux Kernel 2.4.21-11mdk Cooker for i586 ----------------------------------------------------------------- * This message was composed on a 100% Microsoft free computer * If you think the problem is bad now, just wait until we've solved it. -- Arthur Kasspe
