I heartily recommend spamassassin. It used a variety of weightings to
see if the mail you have is spam. For example, if the mail is listed
in Razor, it's worth 2 points, and if it came from a site listed in one
of the RBLs, it's worth a few points, and so on. You can configure the
weighting as

Before I upgraded to Redhat 7.3, exmh would colorize quoted text in
messages;
lines beginning with a single '' were colored red, and line beginning with

Since upgrading, exmh no longer does this. Any ideas why this would have
broken, and more important,
Nevermind my previous message; I just checked the exmh web site, and
it turns out Redhat is a version behind (2.4, where 2.5 is current).
