Get HAM's from Exchange / Outlook

Hello all, anyone have an idea of how to get HAM's from an exchange /
Outlook environment back to SA?

My incoming is scanned by a SA gateway but outgoing goes straight from
exchange to the cloud.

I would be carefull doing that... Outlook and even more Exchange are known
for modifying message headers which could affect score in both ways...

All you need is fetchmail, and it's probably already installed in your 
distro.  spamiam.fetchmailrc is read by fetchmail, giving it the 
necessary instructions to fetch mail from a public folder on the 
Exchange server.

Steven,

	Would you mind elaborating on the spamiam.fetchmailrc script?  What
interpreter are you using and what packages are prerequisites?

This relies on users (or worse, admins) putting mail in PFs. I used a similar scheme, and it was cumbersome.

I've found that Maia Mailguard is a useful tool that wraps itself around SpamAssassin, and presents the users with a web page with which they can classify/rescue inbound emails, along with reminder emails to the users, etc.

Incredibly spiffy.
