That is probably not stated completely correctly, but it is getting late and I'm getting frustrated. By way of background, last week we had a tree in the front hit by lightning. While for the most part the computers were well protected by the upses, networking components died. Not nice, but a nice prod to update the local mail server software & hardware. What I want to happen is to use postfix and spamassassin to que up the email to either accessed locally or by imap by the remote son or daughters. What I'm not finding out (google & RH docs etc) is how postfix hands off email for delivery to local spool, such that spamassassin can get it's paws on the message. What I'm getting the feeling is that FC assumes the the email client will be evolution, and lets evolution contact spamassassin, which isn't quite what I had in mind. My thanks to the list for their consideration and bandwidth. -- ============================================= If you think Education is expensive Try Ignorance Author Unknown ============================================
