AL My God, NO!!! Nice idea, but it's BRAKE! I tried it, and kill after

Why? I'm using it at work (server here 's to 'old' for SpamAssassin to
work) and it works like a charm.
All three available plugins are installed and activated and the current
Beta-version is really faster than last stable release.
So could you elaborate what your problem with SpamPal was?

AL POP3Catcher - http://voyager.pisem.net/POP3Catcher/

I'm unable to 'decipher' the Cyrillic written news, but beside that I don't
the concrete reasons why this program is superior to SpamPal?!

But the most significant difference: SpamPal _is_ free of charge, while
POP3Catcher is free only in a functional limited version ...

So convince me :-):

Why am I going to prefer POP3Catcher over SpamPal? :-)))

Hello Jonathan!

Thanks for your reply.

There is nothing that says you have to use it on the server side. You
can just as well run it on the client as I did under linux using
KMail.  KMail offered me a filter action called pipe through external
program which I used to pipe the mail through spamassassin. I am not
aware of similar functionality in The Bat!

Unfortunately I dont have full control of my mail server so I can not
run spamassassin there as you suggested.

Anyhow, I'd be glad if anyone has suggestions for other spamfilters or
tips on how I can get spamassassin to work with The Bat!

Best regards,
Kjartan

JA - From what I remember, spamassassin is a server side filtering system,

JA just continue to use it if you are allowed on the mail server,
JA especially if you are happy with the results.

Last time I checked... SpamAssassin was a unix product, although
DeerSoft were supposed to be adding the same engine into their MDaemon
mail server.  With this in mind... no... TB! cannot pipe mail to
SpamAssassin.  Although I guess if you were running TB! on linux, you
could use a filter to export the mail to text, then run the SpamAssassin
filter on the exported mail, then reimport (deleting the original), and
running the filter on the headers if altered (ie the scoring system).

 Anyhow, I'd be glad if anyone has suggestions for other spamfilters or
 tips on how I can get spamassassin to work with The Bat!

Here is the method I use, its a reverse spam filter in a way.  Create a
series of filters to move the mail you do want to keep... as such:

High traffic Lists/Contacts (at the top)
Medium traffic lists/contacts
Low traffic lists/contacts

And what is left to drop out the bottom should normally be spam, or
somebody that isn't in your address book.
