Yes, obviously. But I do not yet have the infrastructure to get mails delivered directly (sad enough). Instead I was reading with upas/fs. To use the bayesian filter, I planned to get the remote mails home. It seems like I tend to try doing this on plan9 on a wrong way, e.g. I thought it was good idea to give them to my pipeto file. The problem with upas/spam was of the same kind like that occuring with that approach. But my idea seem bullshit at all. Would it be a better way to 'msgcat /imap/my.imap.server/myaccount' to get remotely stored mails given to the local upas/smtp? Which way is the easiest?
