You are not missing anything... that is correct.  I posted it as a
wishlist, and still want that functionality from within the browser
window, as that is exclusively how I deal with my mail.

Re: server side spam filtering

2003-10-16 Thread Bob Parks

anyone know how any equally good Mail filter software that runs on the
server? Preferrably on OS X Server (Think Unix).

We went with an outside filtering service (Postini).  The filtering is
not perfect, but its quite good and easy to use.  Since we are a small
company, we got it through a VAR.  Price is $2 per human user per month,
with a minimum of 10 users, plus a few hundred $ initial setup (but with
a free trial).

It also does a great job on viruses, which was great during some of the
recent Windoze outbreaks, where it kept hundreds of megabytes per day
from reaching our server.

If you want more info, contact me off the list

Perhaps en masse, but individual mail can be put in any box by selecting
the destination from the File In popup menu.  Or is this menu only
available in two-pane view and you are not in that view?

mainly because I can never trust the result of a search.

That was with the beta version. With the final version, if such a problem
occurs, you get an error message on startup (indexing error, class=QIE ;
what=9; when=2), and you can rebuild the index from the file / database
menu without deleting the old one manually.

Can you describe your problem in detail? Do you have some error messages?
Can you find some words and not some others?

Does anyone have a clue as to why this is happening?

now I get a lot of spams with the phrase SPAM added in the

TrustedMail. You'll have to do your own Googling to find it... Don't know
if its Mac-able but I do know it runs on Linux and stops 90+% of spam and
has next to no false positives. My host (dsvr.co.uk) sell it for GBP 30

You could look at SpamBouncer if you know your way around Unix:  http://

Also, the PopFile software is worth a look.
