Hmm. Michelle, is this a SpamAssassin list, or a procmail list? ;) More seriously, if one was to use this recipe, any mention of the single "magic word" in a mail sent to any address other than this list's, will immediately cause that mail to be sent to the bit-bucket. This is false-positive-prone, and with major consequences. It is a good deal safer to use SpamAssassin rules, allowing false positives to be rescued from the "spam" folder if/when they misfire. (The nature of the real world is that there will _always_ be false positives.) This was a core design decision I made when first designing SpamAssassin, in response to this kind of brittle, dangerous procmail recipe. --j.
