If you just make a copy of the .procmailrc into the user account home
directory and specify the path to the spam file in there. Also you can
install webmin and usermin, when you log into the users usermin web
account it sets up all the paths and other useful options too, worth a
look...

Subject: [Preston] installing spamassassin on a redhat 7.3 server


I have installed spamassassin on my redhat 7.3 server. It works fine.
However, it filters all mail to @mydomain.com I have a number of users
using individual pop3 accounts and they may not want their mail
filtered. i.e.
me at mydomain.com	user:me.mydomain
you at mydomain.com	user:you.mydomain

etc...

My .procmailrc file will filter all suspected spam into a file called
'spamcatcher'

How can I filter each user into a spamcatcher file of their own ???

I am not using a .forward file. Spamassassin won't work with it.

Thanks,

John C
