Michael,

I really like the concept.  I thought Outlook had limited mail filtering 
ability though, namely that it could only sort by From, To, Subject, and 
not additional headers.  Perhaps I am thinking of outlook express.....

Is there a procmail recipe that will sort spam in a users inbox (like on 
the unix server) so that users using pine etc can have that same 
functionaality?
