There's the problem, I had a spammer sending me junk backdated about a ye=

and set up a filter to pass anything that is older then 300 days when

For some reason the date header didn't get seen, and kmail gave it a defa=

date.

Also, the filter to put the vox and vox-tech messages was *after* the spa=
m=20
filters. Had it been before like it should have been, there wouldn't have=
 a=20
problem.

This it the first time in the 2 months i'd had that filter there's been a
problem, but just in case, I set things up so i need to manualy pipe my s=
pam
through ricochet to avoid this in the future.

This has been CC'd to all addressed somplaints were sent to.
