Ok, I just set that up in kmail, triggered by <any header> 'does

It's worth noting that you're likely to cause a mail loop on your
machine. If the header doesn't exist after passing through SA the
first time, the header will likely not be added by passing it
through again.

Its been running about an hour now without doing so.  And I don't
see how it could since the filter rules are processed in the list
order shown by kmail.  So there is no way for it to loop that I can
see.

My instant problem is a veritable flood of about 3 bounces from the
*(&^$^%$()_)(!! uol.com.br for every message I post to the fedora
list.

What that isp, and no I won't dignify it by uppercaseing it,
seriously needs is the 20 lbs of 50+ year old nitro I found laying
in an abandoned mine site about 20 years ago, applied right in the
center of the net rack room.  Unforch, its a very long drive to
deliver it.

One facility that kmail seems to be missing, is the ability to send
such crap to /dev/null, all I get are error messages when thats
attempted.

I don't remember if you use procmail or not.

No, I'm using fetchmail. But is there a way to pipe fetchmails output thru a prefilter such as procmail? Yeah, I know, man procmail to the rescue.... Looks doable, but when I have both eyes open simultainously I think. Right now its only one. Getting sleepy out and all that.

This is from my .procmailrc recipe set:
# Uncomment either /dev/null or /$HOME/mail/uol_crap, your choice.
# Modify the latter as appropriate for your userlevel mail storage

That's right. You're using KMail to run fetchmail so you're helpless.
Good luck, Kemo Sabe!
