Re: How to remove (spam) issues from the tracker

Hello,

I have seen the pages but I did not find more information than the basic
idea in 3 lines. A bit more information how to achieve this would be
helpful.
I was interested in the IMAP folder based approach but for now I do not
see all the details. I know how to filter using e.g. sieve and could
imagine filtering spam out. However I do not see how roundup-mailgw
comes into play. (Filtering works on delivery, not on user-action. Thus
I could not call the mailgw from within the mail filtering language...)

Thanks a lot
