Laurie> I was wondering if your spam program works with an Internet Laurie> based e-mail system? It depends. If your mail service allows IMAP access, you should (in theory) be able to use the SpamBayes IMAP filter to classify mail, though nobody's tried that yet as far as I know. I use Gmail via its POP3 interface. When my system downloads mail it classifies the messages locally. Obviously, in that situation, when I view mail through the Gmail web interface it hasn't been classified using SpamBayes. -- Skip Montanaro - skip@pobox.com - http://www.webfast.com/~skip/
