Do you know if there's a way to turn off the "preview" of mail -- so that you don't open a message for reading unless you specifically click on it to open it? I don't want any spam auto-opening ... -- Gracia...Cooleemee, NC Registered Linux user #263390 - SuSE 10 Pro My country, right or wrong. If right, to be kept right, if wrong, to be put right.

As a newbie I have the same problem - I can suggest 2 work-arounds 1) Set a long delay before marking mail "as read" 2) Use spam assassin to auto file as Trash & mark as read (Dont ask me for instructions on the later as I still havent mastered it fully myself !!! ) Hope it helps -- Its not the way that you say it when you do those things to me Its more the way that you mean it when you tell those things to me

Arthur, I use Bogofilters and I have found it quite good. Just install the RPM for Bogofilters and use Tools->Anti-Spam Wizard. After a days worth of marking emails as spam, you should see a huge decline in your inbox. I haven't used spam assassin, so I can't compare. I just tried Bogofilters and it worked right away, so I had no need to try others. Alvin -- Please reply to the list and not my email address. Thank you.
