That may be OK if you have a user community that more or less agrees on what is spam and what isn't. Too often one person's spam is another's ham. I don't want some idiot among the 15000 users of the same mailserver -- this is my real situation BTW -- decide that an admin message he doesn't like is spam, and therefore increase the chance that others won't see it. And of course if *anyone* can log in to a specific account, then the spammers can as well (there's no such thing as a shared secret among 15000 users) and bias the engine in their favour. No thanks. poc _______________________________________________ Evolution-list mailing list Evolution-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list
