|       Hi all.  Got a question about fetchmail again.  This one should be 
| easy.  I'm looking for the easiest way to get fetchmail to purge a mailbox 
| for me.  Here's what I'm after.  First off, when my mail downloads, fetch 
| has been told (via a config I have in sendmail) to leave mail on the server 
| if the user has an invalid domain name.  IE. From viruses, spam, etc.  What 
| I want it to do is to try to download all of the messages on the server, 
| then, regardless if they succeed or fail, I want fetchmail to just nuke 
| them off the server.  Currently it only nukes mail that has been 
| successfully delivered to the local computer.  I want it to dump all of 
| them so that it doesn't end up leaving all the rejected mail messages to 
| pile up on the server, yet at the same time I don't want it to wipe all of 
| the messages till it's tried to download each message at least 
| once.  Anyone got any good suggestions on how to setup fetch to do this?

        if you are downloading for POP, try filtermail.
        /usr/ports/mail/filtermail
