No. From mailfilterrc(5): This keyword can be used to override spam filters i.e. to define `friends'. A message that matches any ALLOW rules will not be filtered or deleted. ALLOW takes a Regular Expression as argument. (beside this, in my own .mailfilterrc, all "Deny" rules are above the "Allow" rules). Do you have any rules like "REG_CASE", "REG_TYPE" or "MAXSIZE_(ALLOW|DENY)" set ? -- .,p**"*=b_ Nicolas Rueff ?P" .__ `*b Montbéliard - France |P .d?'`&, 9| http://rueff.tuxfamily.org M: |} |- H' [EMAIL PROTECTED] &| `#?_._oH' +33 6 77 64 44 80 `H.
