Between qmail and Plesk, what you're looking for may not be possible with the obvious exposed controls; you may need to manually dig into configuration files to get the behaviour you want. > Imagine the following situation: > [EMAIL PROTECTED] forwards to [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED],... > > Now if SpamAssassin checks [EMAIL PROTECTED] and each user has enabled spam > filtering too, SpamAssassin will filter the same message once for mailgroup@ > and then once again for each user.

SA doesn't have any sort of capability like that itself; it scans what it's been handed. On systems I'm responsible for (all currently SA3.1.8 + sendmail with no formal "hosting panel"), I'd add a header during the "systemwide" scan, and then check for that header during the per-user processing. If the header was present, don't call SA again. I'm pretty sure what you want is *possible*... but I can't say whether it's possible via your hosting panel, *easy* but you have to dig into back-end configuration files, or possible but bury-your-head-in-MTA-guts *nasty* to set up. -kgd
