What I want to do is simple : Either the expeditor is listed (exact email), it's deleted ; or not, it can pass :-) my txt file contains adresses like that [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] ...

Yes but the problem is I don't use the dispatcher on server ; I have a first antispam filter based on a hundred keywords on alternatives strings that send suspicious mail in a spam folder that I can verify sometimes. What is the effect of the "ignore" choice if is not dispatched on server ?
