In that case it will intercept all K9 POP3 calls and process the email before passing them on to K9. In that case you have the email scanned by both SpamExpert and K9. If you change your POP3 settings of your email client back to normal (so a normal user id, the normal ISP POP3 server and port 110, K9 will not be used anymore and you only rely on SpamExpert. But, as with all anti-spam tools, you need to train this program by moving a Spam message from the Ham List to the Spam List... -- Best regards, Dick ___________________________________________________________ (Moders/Newbies) + Stabbing = Happy.
