I was wondering about dspam w/ pop3. This answers a lot of questions.
I'm disappointed to see that Netscape doesn't have a redirect option.
However, there *is* a mailredirect extension for Mozilla Thunderbird (0.7
and above) and Mozilla Mail. I don't know if this would work with Netscape
or not.
In addition, I see on the dspam list that some people have used both
spamassassin *and* dspam. That being the case, I think we should be looking
to provide dspam in addition to SA on the toaster. It'd be sweet if people
could choose either/and with a simple configuration. Keyword: simple.
Neither one is looking very simple to me at this point. :( Doesn't mean it
can't be done though.
