Unfortunately, some inferious (popular) MUAs don't let you filter on arbitrary headers. Outlook Express is one. My default response is "who cares?", but I know many do. > I wonder what would happen if the spammer had sent "X-Spam-Flag: NO" > as part of the header in the spam message.

Of course, the problem here was Moz, not procmail/maildrop; moz's mail filtering is less sophisticated. -- rjbs
