Zbigniew:  Hello,
Zbigniew:
Zbigniew:  I just wonder if there is any software you would recommend that could

Zbigniew:  mean I know spamassasin but the box I use is not too powerful so I
Zbigniew:  try to switch off as many system-wide services as possible. But
Zbigniew:  something like popfile that could be plugged into pine would be nice.
Zbigniew:  Can you recommend anyhing like that?



What I find interesting is your dilema.  You want to filter email, but
do not want to run SpamAssassin because the computer is slow.

However, as discussed in prior postings, Pine's filtering is slower
and more CPU intensive than, say, procmail.  I cannot speak about
SpamAssassin, as I do not run it.  But I do run procmail.

While Pine's filtering comes in handy post-delivery, I think you may
find procmail (which can be installed and ran by a local user) will do
the job of filtering incoming email quicker and with less CPU cycles.
Procmail is PRE-delivery and does not "plug" into Pine, as far as I
know.


Just my thought.  Hope it helps.


Thanks
Birl
