'Best' is subjective. I want a quick and well documented way of installing 'some' util that interacts with sendmail, so I can use spamd. I have things running pretty slick with the courier package (mailfilter) on one server, but I want to change to sendmail on another and simply *need* spamassassin to run. I don't use procmail(!) otherwise the question was not asked. A .procmailrc file would take care of this quite as easy as my mailfilter file does now. But as said, I run sendmail with lmpt to cyrus. Spam_milter is mentioned; I guess this is just for spamassassin, while MIMEDefang can also integrate a (future) use of virus filtering. I'll study some more.. -- dick -- http://nagual.nl/ -- PGP/GnuPG key: F86289CE ++ Running FreeBSD 6.1 +++ Solaris 10 6/06 ++
