Hi,

thanks for the advise.

In the end I decided on Alun Jones' system

http://users.aber.ac.uk/auj/spam/


The main reason being that I could follow the code, and I have written a few
PERL scripts in the days before PHP.

Although there is no proper "HowTo" to assist, I found my way quite easy.

The basic steps I followed:

Copy the files into the Exim directory (this keeps the Exim stuff together)
Make sure the files are executable
Check that PERL is indeed where the starting line of the Socket script wants
it - else edit the script.

Create a startup script to run the sockets script as a daemon (I copied the
crond script and edited it)


Create the DB as per template and Grant all rights

Start the daemon.

Add the snippet to the Exim config file & restart Exim.

See it work.

Create a PERL script to call the cleanup procedure and set the cron to do it
daily.

Test the cleanup script manually.

That is about it.

Regards.

Nico
