Seems to work well so Glyn, I work at a Unix workstation. Sendmail puts the mail on the mailserver. Procmail fetches it from there and filters it through junkmail filter into my local account mail folders (I read it with mew, a Japanese emacs mail program, but gnus or Wanderlust or mh would do as well). If the mailserver can only be accessed via APOP would popsneaker work? If I use POP3 from my mail program, I have to use a .forward file to first move all the mail to a different machine which has the less secure POP3 on it. Then the work would be similar.... Any thoughts here? -- G Hassenpflug RASC, Kyoto University
