Generally. But, then again, eventually, with all the bandwidth wasted on spam, there won't be any _real_ e-mail to read, anyway, so filtering will be a waste of time (just send it all to /dev/null)... Actually, that's not a bad idea. Send all mail to /dev/null unless it comes from a source you are prepared to accept mail from... Never mind. joe
