Thanks for the input.... That is what I had assumed but I wanted to be sure before implementing the solution.

If you're looking at spam/virus/bad content filtering, I'd most certainly do it at the SMTP level with something such as SpamAssassin. You could also look at various other server side filters to handle it but they'd probably require a more constant maintenance. Client side filters in SquirrelMail will also be incredibly inefficient, and will drawn an excessive load on your servers, even with a moderate level of users, due to the processing required to do the filtering. - -- Jonathan Angliss <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.1 (GNU/Linux) iEYEARECAAYFAkQDxp4ACgkQK4PoFPj9H3PzggCg8GBPCZJgJnlSADlXuHyOv/Ui 4ssAoIG6kK+LTI2ZvDL2o9r6seqyCVHQ =Xb38 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by xPML, a groundbreaking scripting language that extends applications into web and mobile media.
