Yeah; it runs as a relatively-big Perl wad normally, but for efficiency you can start it as a daemon and then run a small C client that behaves the same way, so that the startup costs are one-time instead of per-mail. > If the > on-the-wire protocol were simple enough, you could probably write a > pure-Python client and then integrate that into Mailman's handler > pipeline.

I actually hadn't thought about trying to provide spam filtering for lists; I'm just thrilled with what it's doing for my personal email. _______________________________________________ Mailman-Developers mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-developers
