hmm, a little bit.  What we are looking for is send only a text message, saying that someone received a spam from x at x.com.  Since I'm using an Exchange server wich receives the mail after MS scans it, it would save bandwidth and disk space on the exchange server.  And I find it more convenient.

We went even further with an idea of a daily diary.
