You can add recipies to .procmailrc that will weigh mail. Here is a short example: * -5^0 [EMAIL PROTECTED] * -5^0 ^TO_.*xemacs.org * -5^0 ^TO_.*yahoogroups.com * 15^0 ^TO_.*chejugo.co.kr * 15^0 Subject:.*Hot and nasty cum guzzling teens! * 15^0 from [EMAIL PROTECTED] * 15^0 Message-Id:[EMAIL PROTECTED] * 15^0 @jgrim * 2^0 /dev/null In the above, you assign a negative value to mail you want to keep, a positive value to spam sources. The second to the last line gives a default positive value to everything. Mail that goes through this filter and has a positive total value goes to the bit bucket. Mail with a negative value continues on through .procmailrc. With this filter I can only receive mail that has one of my email addresses in the To: or Cc: field, and that isn't from one of the listed spammers that I've included in the filter.

A mail address inside angle brackets is a standard e-mail address format. The procmail filter at http://spastic.sourceforge.net handles the problem of getting e-mail not addressed to you through an allowed file. You just list valid addresses (or regexps) that can be in the To: or Cc: header in a file. All others are marked as spam and dumped into a spam file that you can review later. It has many other filters you can use for other headers, the body, valid domains, etc. Best Regards, Keith -- LPIC-2, MCSE, N+ Got spam?
