Yes. SpamAssassin can only tag messages as spam, but it can't do anything about the messages that are tagged as spam; you'd need to use procmail for things such as moving spam-tagged messages into a spam folder. > How can I see if the procmail is running ?. procmail does not run in the background. It is only called when an e-mail message comes in. How it is called is dependent on which mail server software (sendmail, qmail, postfix, etc.) you're using, and how you've configured it. ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by: To learn the basics of securing your web site with SSL, click here to get a FREE TRIAL of a Thawte Server Certificate: http://www.gothawte.com/rd524.html _______________________________________________ Spamassassin-talk mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/spamassassin-talk
