Spam filters

[robinturner]

I am now getting so much spam I'm having to set up some pretty odd mail filters. Things going directly to the trash bin now include anything from Korea or containing common Hangul characters, anything from Romania with with the word "free", and anything with "Brittney Spears" in the subject. Obviously advertisers think I'm a Korean living in the Balkans who wants to see Brittney Spears naked. So much for snooping on people's cookies.

I had a quick look at the documentation a while ago. What I couldn't work out is whether it's server-side, or something you install in your UNIx account, or whether you can install it client-side to filter mail from you POP3 server. Maybe I'm stupid. Maybe I don't read documentatation properly. Maybe I've spent too long in the 'nix world, so that I actually skim the documentation first, rather than just unzipping the tarball and doing configure->make->make install.
