take a look at MailScanner (www.mailscanner.info). The greatest thing since home-brewed beer, IMHO.

Hi
I would like to set up a local mailserver but I'm getting lost with all the available options. As I have already decided to use dovecot I hope someone here will be able to point me to the right docs/HOWTO's/...
Here's my wish-list:
- download mail from my ISP's POP3-server
- scan with spamassassin
- scan with ClamAV
- filter messages (mailing lists/sender/...)
- store messages in dovecot
- be able to read messages on my desktop (where all of the above will be running) and on my laptop
- be able to send messages (currently using evolution) from both my desktop and laptop so sent messages are stored in dovecot (the idea is to be able to see all sent messages on both PC's)
I have already created a test-account om my ISP's POP3-server, installed and configured fetchmail and dovecot. Exim has been installed as well but I haven't touched it's configuration yet. Running fetchmail manually collects the mail and stores it in /var/mail/m8ram where dovecot finds it.
So I would like to know (how to find out) how I can achieve 2), 3), 4) and 7).
I have looked around and have discovered that there are many programs that can do some or all of this. But I haven't been able to figure out how to get them to work with dovecot.
e.g. I don't understand what I would have to change to dovecot's config if exim or procmail or whatever moves certain messages to different folders (or even where these folders would be created).
Perhaps I'm missing a HOWTO that explains all this, if so please let me know.
TIA
Bram
