[Spambayes] Q: pop3proxy: configuration: pop3 sessions

[Ralf Römling]

Thanks for your reply, but I've wanted the proxy because I want my users to
get rid of their spam without involving them into the technical process.
Therefore, the plugin is no option and I'm going to use spamassassin
instead...

That's not a reason not to use the Outlook plugin on any client computer
that has Outlook. Outlook will let you set up an "account" that picks up its
mail from a POP3 server, and that mail gets filtered just as it would if it
came in via the usual Exchange protocol. I do that all the time on my home
network.

I wouldn't try to talk you out of using the proxy if that's what you prefer.
But I sure wouldn't use the proxy in a situation where I could use the
plugin.
