Brad,
Thanks for this post - absolutely brilliant! Now my day is at least
bearable! (that doesn't say much for my day though!)

Hi
If I have a situation in which , some users had

they request that all those mails they do not want in
their inbox , in such case I cannot consider those
Why can't they just unsubscribe from the mailing list ?
mail as spam and add to the spam database, since it is
from a mailing list which they had subscribed , or I
cannot tell them to un-subscribe
In such a case , can I do some user
level settings , so that the rules which I set will be
applicable to the user which demands this feature
for the setup in which
I will be having my users running MS
OS , Mdaemon Mail Server on MS OS , and I am using
Spamassassin
I do not want to set any filter
rules on the mail client , I want a custom spam filter
for this type of users , so that other users wont be
affected by this setup
Thanks

That is conceivably the longest sentence I've ever seen.
If you *must* run that muck as a server, then Mdaemon is quite a nice little mailer.
The best and neatest solution is to get the user to unsubscribe. The ugly and nasty solution is to
set a rule to bounce any mail from that list back to the list admin address as undeliverable and
wait for the poor list manager to manually unsubscribe that address.
In the latter case the user who subscribed in the first place should be beaten mercilessly with
either the nearest available clue-bat, or failing that a soggy pool noodle. Public humiliation is an
acceptable substitute whilst writing 1000 times "I must learn to read mailing-list on-join
instructions and use my brain".
Brad (ps allow me to replenish your supply of full stop's "....................") :)
