Brad, I'll tell you how I've done it and I'll leave it up to you if you think this answers your question.
I am using procmail to deliver messages to a Maildir format instead of mbox (with all of its locking and performance issues). Then I deliver SA-flagged spam to a .SPAM subfolder of my Inbox in IMAP. So I switch from POP3 to IMAP and I can still peruse the SPAM to ensure nothing was a false positive, but it's a whole lot cleaner than having SA flagged messages inside my regular Inbox. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Brad Koehn" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Monday, June 10, 2002 1:21 PM Subject: [SAtalk] sa troubles > Hey all, > > I'm running into two interesting problems with my SA configuration, that > others may have run into also: > > 1.
