Dear S Karthikeyan ,

thank you very much, but i really do not know how to do that because the 
paths the mailfolders of the users of my system are in a different server,
and of course spam and nospam have to be users of my system on the same 
domain of the others..


Internet ---- Router ------ SMTP with openprotect ---- IMAP server

So how can i manage sa-learn script to find those mails? All the mail is 
forwarded using qmail control file smtproutes: mydomain:ipofimapserver.

How can i manage?
