It also depends on use I'd say. A previous mail was saying that the MUA was catching everything that SA let through. So the MUA gets to focus on only catching a certain class of mails. If it had to try catching everything, it may not function so well. (my apple mail still misses a bunch of spam that also misses SA, and I generally haven't been impressed.) -- Randomly Generated Tagline: "Winnie the Pooh is the balls." - Matt
