Shouldn't make any difference, I'm not loading images in mail from the WWW. Evolution shouldn't being doing any such lookups. > Or IIRC evolution uses spamd/spamassassin?

Spamassassin didn't get allowed to do its tricks anything more than a few days after initial tests, it makes Evolution even slower than it usually is (quite awful, to begin with). By the way: This message is finally being replied to, now, because my mail host (an external service, which makes poor use of spamassassin) thought it was spam, thanks to the URI mentioned in the log entry, and I haven't seen the message until today. -- Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored. I read messages from the public lists.
