Yes, that is all I want (for now :-). Just a field on the POP set up screen where I can enter the path and optionally command line parameters to run any program that happens before M does its thing. > However it would probably slow it down a lot as the connection to > the POP server would have to be opened twice... Small price to pay when you consider 4 spams that might get through verses 200? Since mailfilter is a open source thing, would it be possible to link it in some how so that works as a library to M? That would solve the problem. Also mailfilter could benefit from M's nice AND/OR type rules, some thing that it lacks. > > BP> Failing that, the mailfilter rules are based on Regular Expressions, > BP> would there be a easy way to convert them to M's format? > > It should be trivial to write a simple Perl script doing it.

There are still some features of mailfilter that can't be done yet with M, at least I've not figured out how. Such as enabling case sensitive rules on a case by case bases. A set of global rules would also be nice, that I've not figured out how to do. For example I've found that 80% of the spam I get is not addressed to any of my valid email addresses. I'd like a rule that checks a list of my valid email addresses and if no match is found it deletes the message. I could put my email address in each rule with AND/OR's etc. but that is a real pain. _______________________________________________ Mahogany-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/mahogany-users
