I would suggest postfix, spamassassin/procmail set server wide and the pop/imap server of your choice. Both postfix and spamassassin have detailed how-to's on their sites. IMHO postfix is much easier to configure than sendmail, but then I haven't used sendmail in years. Make sure you use the spamassassin binary (spamd) or it can get very slow. Spamassassin has whitelist/greylist, blacklist and RBH available. Beech -- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Beech Rintoul - Sys.
