Here's the solution I'm now using.

1. POPFile categorizes e-mail as SPAM (or not)
2. I've switched my son's e-mail client to PocoMail
3. Poco filters e-mail in the address book to inbox
4. Poco filters e-mail marked spam and deletes it
5. The remaining e-mails go to a password protected folder named
   Unknown
6. I periodically review the Unknown e-mails and add sender to
   his address book as appropriate

The main reason for the switch to PocoMail is to give him the
ability to create simple HTML messages. Also, being able to
password protect individual folders works well with this
solution.

Thanks,
Dave Kennedy
