Frank, This may not be the problem but you should certainly check your /etc/procmailrc file to make sure the defaults are set up for procmail to direct scanning for spam. If you only have $HOME/.procmailrc set up for some users and not others you will have some spam missed without having /etc/procmailrc set up as well. Greg Ennis
