i thought procmail was the mda, but i could be wrong.

the reason i am looking at this now, is i have just installed the horde frame 
work, they provide the concept of  a spam email address also a ham address as 
well.


the tools currently being used are mutt, squirrelmail, horde/imp, exim, 
procmail, spamassassin (rayzor and ++) and grey listing


because of the different type of programmes being used a shared directory is 
really the way to go I think ?
