Latest update of my 'popcheck.sh' (version 1.3),
http://freshmeat.net/projects/popchecksh/
or
http://home.eol.ca/~parkw/index.html#spam
now uses Procmail rcfile to test for spam, instead of 'egrep' as was
done before. Although either method is okey for Microsoft Swen/Netsky
worms, the main benefit of using Procmail rcfile is that you can add
recipes from your own ~/.procmailrc to detect and delete other spams.
Usage:
popcheck.sh [rcfile spamfile]
Default 'rcfile' is ~/popcheck.rc, and default 'spamfile' is ~/spam.
The script checks the headers of each message on POP server. If spam
pattern is detected by 'rcfile', then the header will be saved to ~/spam
for future reference, and the message on the server will be deleted.
