Thanks for your reply Derick,
I'm still playing around with the email filtering system. I've got a
couple of filters in place, although one thing that I miss is the
ability to forward/bounce e-mails based on sender (not a commonly used
one, but I had a specific need). I disabled sendmail on this machine
because it's really not needed, or else I suspect I could pipe to it.
I did get the latest SpamAssassin to work, it seems my perl was
incorrectly configured so I couldn't CPAN the latest until I fixed that.
One question: Seeing as how you can pipe e-mail messages in evolution,
is there some kind of script to query a DNSBL after messages have been
received from a POP3 server and filter accordingly (ie return 0 or 1 if
the IP is on a DNSBL)? Most DNSBL info is written for server side
processing, and that's not what I need on this particular machine.
Any help is greatly appreciated,
Tom
