Uh, you might want to stop right here with rejecting mails that came in via fetchmail! The recipe that I gave you will only work when the mail is sent directly to your server, not for mails polled with fetchmail. In that case the mail has already been accepted for you (by the provider in your order). Any reject after that will only bounce the mail, not reject it. Additionally, fetchmail uses localhost, so it will probably be in $mynetworks as a trusted host, so the recipe will not work as desired anyway. To make it short: you can only discard (dangerous!) or tag the mails when you work with fetchmail. :-( -- Sandy List replies only please!
