Jan, When we tried using kmail's filter using spamc, the problem we encountered is that while the mail was running thru spamc, kmail slowed to a crawl. We had previously been using procmail, but are trying to avoid this route. Our MTA is postfix and I do believe I've seen some references to using sa as a filter. I guess I'll have to google the subject. -- ========================================================================== Robin Lynn Frank - Director of Operations - Paradigm-Omega, LLC No attachments or active content is permitted in incoming mail.
