I filter all my mail with SA through KMail. Which I guess is what you do too, as Kontact just brings up KMail. As you have probably done, pipe all your mail through SA with a filter setup like for all mail less than 250,000 bytes pipe through spamc. Then filter all mail that has X-Spam-Status=yes to your spam box, mine is "SpamPile" Now, I have a little script that runs spam-learn on my inbox, SpamPile and a few others daily. Mine runs from KAlarm. Now, get and setup my_rules_du_Jour and rules_du_jour. You can get it from the Exit0 SA Wiki Page at http://www.exit0.us/index.php/MyRulesDuJour. Follow the directions there to use up my_rules_du_jour and rules_du_jour. Then all I do is Friday after I get home from work I run a little script manually that updates my_rules_du_jour, and my machine by urpmi. The rules_du_jour part takes about 2 minutes to run. So it takes about 8 minutes a month to control spam with SA. Rob a very happy SA user. -- Linux Desktop user since 2000, Home networker since shortly after. Linux User #183693 http://counter.li.org/
