Ok, those being your constraints I'd suggest switching to another ISP. A mail only account with procmail support can cost you as little as $25 a month for unlimited users, 200MB of disk and 8GB of transfer. You are talking about doing the periodic query using a dial-up account I bet. Otherwise I can't figure this scenario out. That being the case it's likely that switching to a better ISP is your only way out. If your box is filling up so quickly that you must kludge your way through the question above then a dial-up is going to be a pain. rw2 _______________________________________________ Spamassassin-talk mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/spamassassin-talk
