Here is a good site to start you on your way to email security and there is a very helpful mail list there as well. http://www.impsec.org/email-tools/procmail-security.html I've been using this methode along with Spamassassin for years and all my networks remain virus free since before love bug. :) > i know i sound really dumb, well i really dont know much about linux sorry !!!
