So long as it's in the mbox style, SpamAssassin will work with it. I do remember seeing some references to the Thunderbird mail system, so I think it should be OK. -- Jonathan Wright ~ mail at djnauk.co.uk ~ www.djnauk.co.uk -- 2.6.12-gentoo-r9-djnauk-b1 Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 Mobile CPU 1.80GHz up 2:58, 2 users, load average: 3.26, 1.86, 1.06 -- "Trust a nitwit society like this one to think that there are only two categories - fag and straight." ~ Gore Vidal -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
