 Hello,

Hi !
 
 I've been following this discussion with great interest, and looked
 (very shortly, I confess) to the tools that were mentioned. I have the
 impression that they require you to be online to work. Do they still
 work if you dial up, run fetchmail and hang off immediately via
 scripts?

Take a look at mailfilter.sourceforge.net.

It can be called from within fetchmail and best of all, it deletes spam
*on the server* so you don't need to download it at all. I had it set up
and working in less than 15 mins. It's a 150 kb download. Get version
0.3.2 though it is devlopment version, it works like a charm.

regards,

Sharukh.

Offline SPAM-filter with mutt?

OR maybe, do they work simultaneously with fetchmail, so it just makes
the phone call some seconds longer?

The way you typically set up Spamassassin is as a pipe via procmail for
each message as it comes in.  You can optionally disable network-based
checks if you want to speed things up (such as sender domain MX
checking, etc.).
