Only problem is that I'm not trying to do any local delivery, this is simply a spam-and-virus filtering front end for the destination (sadly, exchange). My job would be so much easier if I could've just used maildrop or procmail! (although it appears maildrop only works with sendmail).

Thanks! > > --Jeremy here's a thought...use scanners "verbose_spamassassin" and SA will insert a header like: X-Spam-Level: ********** with one asterisk for every (whole int) "hit level" You can then match on a "threshold" of these asterisks using procmail (or maildrop- though I don't have a handy maildrop rule) your /home/user/.qmail file would be like: | preline /usr/bin/procmail -m /home/user/.procmailrc with a /home/user/.procmailrc rule like: PATH=$HOME/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/ucb:/bin:/usr/local/bin:.
