I've been trying to figure out how to blacklist a To address and > in the end I gave up and did it through Procmail instead. In a KMail filter. When downloading POP3 email from this account, I check the headers for the email account name of the spamtrap or a particular header like the ISP ID's: mail.uk.tiscali.co - anything that is unique to the old account. Then I installed Razor and set the KMail filter to pipe all matching messages to spamassassin -r (for report as verified spam), mark as read and move to trash and also set KMail to empty trash on exit. If there are a few genuine people who still send to that account, put a filter ABOVE the spam one to catch the From: line for those specific people. The account itself is checked on an interval basis to make the most of idle time. I just leave KMail running and the ISDN takes care of the rest. -- Neil Williams ============= http://www.codehelp.co.uk http://www.dclug.org.uk http://www.wewantbroadband.co.uk/
