 Hello all, I'm new to the list,
 I was wondering if this would be an option.  I have several users that
 forward all their incoming mail to their blackberries, saving a copy in
 their local account as well for retrieval by pop3.  Currently, with
 qmailadmin 1.2.7, when forward to and save a copy are selected along
 with Spam Detection, the forward is inserted in the .qmail file before
 the spam filter.  Would it be feasable to have the forward placed after
 the spam filter so that their blackberries are protected from spam as well?

it doesn't matter.  .qmail files are only linear in that the parsing goes from 
top to bottom.  Each delivery instruction gets its own, fresh copy of the 
message.

Ah, I understand, so any significant spam filtering would have to be
done earlier in the deliver process, with qmailqueue or something like
that.

But if the spam filter exits correctly, vdelivermail will stop 
processing the .qmail file.

You can't get a spamassassin-modified version of the message, but you 
can have a filter that drops messages before forwarding them.

It should be possible.  I took a quick look at the code, and the only 
problem I can see is that if the user is over quota, the message won't 
get forwarded.  I don't know if that's a problem or not -- maybe it's 
even a benefit?
