I can use Courier for the pop3 connection and outbound SMTP, but I need a program to collect my email from the ISP's pop3 server on a regular basis. I also want to do SpamAssassin filtering, so the program would need to be able to either interface with SpamAssassin directly before delivering to the maildirs or simply pass the mail off to Courier for filtering and delivery. Does anyone have any suggestions for a good software package?

Use fetchmail. Run spamassassin's "spamd". When configuring it, use: mda "spamc | maildrop"

Fetchmail will get messages from your ISP, pipe them to spamassassin, then to maildrop which should dump them into your Maildir.

Perfect!

Thanks, Bowie
