I used to do this, and have procmail do crude spam filtering. I eventually took it out of the loop because mail spool was not a reliable concept in my (relatively highly distributed) world. I'm curious if it gives any benefits today; I would expect machines without working mail spools to be even more common, but I haven't looked in forever. *Chad _______________________________________________ Nmh-workers mailing list [email protected] http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/nmh-workers
