Well, if there's a zero-false-positive and 100% accurate spam filtering solution out there, please let me know.

Now how do I do that ;) Really, I don't care about NDNs for _forwarded_ mail, esp. since most of the mail traffic on this address is from mailing lists. Additionally, the mail is also stored to a local mailbox. I know, that means that users could fetch them via POP3/IMAP/Webmail, but as it is, they prefer getting it forwarded. Stefan
