Courier (IMAP) doesn't have any way to affect mail delivery: the message simply appears in the Maildir, delivered by the MTA. There is another component of the Courier system, 'maildrop', which does filtering of mail before dropping it into the Maildir. You could try installing this, and configuring qmail to use maildrop for delivery instead of dropping messages straight into the Maildir. My own preferred MTA is Exim and it's possible to configure just about any access policy or restriction you like, if you're prepared to play with its string expansion language. > In case you're curious, the purpose of this unusual setup is to enable > third world scientists and researchers to gain access to electronic > journal websites via email.

More info here: > http://www.ictp.trieste.it/ejournals/ I have some experience in doing that sort of thing (via UUCP links). What I don't understand is, the above link seems to describe a service which lets you retrieve web pages via E-mail. Anyone who is a hotmail/yahoo/ sqwebmail user clearly has direct web access anyway, so what is the benefit to them of using this gateway?
