Hi, does anybody on this list have experiences with kmail pipe through filters? My problem is: when my filter is automaticly invoked when the mails are going to be downloaded from my pop3 account I do not get any data via STDIN. On the other hand the filter works fine when it is run manually (as described below). I know that spam filters using the pipe through technology, so there should be a way to solve this issue. Does anybody have a solution or at least an idea? Thanks in advance Jan Am Freitag, 4.
