But my posting was unclear. Here, all of us read our e-mail while connected to the campus IMAP server, and our mail remains on the server. So none of the suggestions here work for us; our e-mail never goes through procmail (or whatever) on our FC1 systems. I'd agree that the ideal situation would be for our campus IT folks to install a spam filter on the IMAP server itself, but they're understaffed and overworked, and this just isn't high on their list. This is another entire discussion, but IMHO downloading all your e-mail from an IMAP server to a local folder so procmail can handle it defeats 90% of the advantages of IMAP over POP, so don't bother suggesting it. -- Stephen Walton <stephen.walton@xxxxxxxx> Dept. of Physics & Astronomy, Cal State Northridge
