Actually I did this sitewide using /etc/procmailrc initially but then decided that there were a few users who wouldn't be getting spam filtering because they were going to be using POP3 still and couln't see their spam subfolder. So if your problem is locking, you could let people use their local ~/.procmailrc and the /etc/procmailrc could send a copy to a Maildir... or you could use a global /etc/procmailrc and do away with ~/.procmailrc.. or probably a dozen other things that I can't think of at the moment :) > BTW have you considered using your email reader to filter messages for you?

If you're suggesting that I could use, say, Microsoft LookOut!'s filtering and send everything labeled as spam to a local folder, I could, but then I'd have to teach everyone (local and remote) how to do that and they wouldn't get the portability benefits of IMAP. _______________________________________________________________ Don't miss the 2002 Sprint PCS Application Developer's Conference August 25-28 in Las Vegas - http://devcon.sprintpcs.com/adp/index.cfm?source=osdntextlink _______________________________________________ Spamassassin-talk mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/spamassassin-talk
