Not Qmail-Scanner's problem: read the FAQ "Messages marked as spam are not quarantined" i.e. it's the users job - not the system. This is a philosophical issue I am yet to be swayed on. If any of you out there are subscribed to the SpamAssassin development list, you will know about the people who flame that list demanding to know why their email is being filtered without their authority. In all cases it's due to their ISP doing just what you want: pre-filtering what they *think* is SPAM - without letting their own customers/whatever know. Qmail-Scanner does a good job of marking the messages as spam - write a document telling users how to filter that off using their MUAs - and you won't have unhappy users... Last thing I want to see is users flaming *ME* because someone else has misconfigured Qmail-Scanner. -- Cheers Jason Haar Information Security Manager, Trimble Navigation Ltd.
