Archiving non-spam

[Andrew MacLachlan]

I'm sure it wouldn't take long to write a script to parse the nonspam directories and pipe the messages through sendmail...

Nope, don't want that!

OK - did that and it's working a treat.

I'm seeing the non-spam turning up in the MailWatch quarantine page now.
That's fine - I presume that the current processes to clean the
quarantined spam directories will also do the non-spam directories?
I've got that set to 30 days at the moment - be nice to be able to
manage both spam and non-spam seperately but in this case it looks like
I can't.  Oh well.

Hmmm.  Not sure I follow that.  With hundreds of users the goal is to be
able to just drop them into the MTA's queue and let it get them where
they need to go.  

Thanks Scott...
