I have been working on getting Fetchmail, Spamassassin, and maildrop to work
together to allow me to download my mail by fetchmail, pass it through
spamassassin, and then let maildrop drop it in a place where I can let Kmail
pick it up, and run all its filters on the mail (I have like 20 filters),
including SA.
I am thinking that this is going to have fetchmail grab my mail and drop it
in /var/spool/mail/robbo, then maildrop will invoke spamc to mark it while it
sits in /var/spool/mail/robbo.
I would like to have it moved to another location (say, ~/.markedmail) so that
kmail can grab it at its leisure and filter it into my directories. What would
I need to do to invoke that? Is there an easier way to handle this fetchmail
and spamassassin alone?
The reason I want to change directories is to avoid the probability that mail
is picked up by fetchmail and uploaded by kmail before SA has had its turn
with it.
Your thoughts? I am not all that familiar with MDAs and would like some second
comments before I proceed.
