Sounds just like what I want to do, but there is one thing I don't get yet, please help me to understand. The serversidefilter page (http://www.squirrelmail.org/plugin_view.php?id=210) says: > Supports Virtual domains, Maildir and MBOX mailboxes, procmail and > maildrop, and Spamassassin filtering. what I don't get is: why/how does this plugin "support" procmail and maildrop? Does this mean that the exact flow, is: 1) user logs into squirrelmail, which 2) runs serversidefilter, which 3) runs procmail, which sorts messages as per its rules or something else? Please Explain. If I got it right: how does one configure procmail from squirrelmail? Note that if this is how this plugin works, I'll just ignore maildrop, because: * I know procmail and could just move on the server some procmailrc file I use at home * unlike maildrop, procmail comes as a separate official package in centos, so I could have it updated automatically whenever a new version comes out.
