But if you're using fetchmail, it's too late to filter -- because you should be rejecting the stuff you don't want at SMTP time. Filtering wants to be done on the _real_ mail server that accepts incoming mail. Doing it after fetchmail is almost as bad as doing it in the MUA. -- David Woodhouse Open Source Technology Centre David.Woodhouse@xxxxxxxxx Intel Corporation -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
