=>If you don't want to use spamass-milter, you could do what I do.
=>Everybody gets a .procmailrc that looks something like this (keep in
=>mind that I use Maildir, not mbox):
=>
=>MAILDIR=$HOME/Maildir
=>
=>:0fw
=>| /usr/bin/spamc -f -t 60
=>
=>:0: SPAM.lck
=>* ^X-Spam-Status: Yes
=>.Spam.Bulkmail/
=>
=>:0
=>$HOME/Maildir/
=>
=>
=>Each user gets a top level "Spam" folder with "Bulkmail", "Missed", and
=>"NotSpam" folders beneath it. The mail tagged by Spam Assassin goes
=>into "Bulkmail". Any mail missed by Spam Assassin is dragged into
=>"Missed", and any false positives in "Bulkmail" are dragged to
=>"NotSpam".
=>
=>Then I just have two scripts (attached). One (spamscan) is designed to
=>run for a single user and scans through the folders, performing the
=>appropriate actions. The second (spamscanall) scans through the list of
=>users and runs the first program (spamscan) for each user.
=>
=>This setup doesn't work well for POP clients, but works just peachy for
=>IMAP clients.
Thanks, that's just what I don't want to do. I really do want to reject
the mail before reception is complete. After I get it then they know I got
it and I have to take the rouble to report it to spamcop.
