Easily install the SpamBayes proxy server
Authored by: Isbiten on Feb 27, '04 08:54:46AM

Won't work, Mail won't give me any errors but I won't receive anything either. If I change back to the regular server it works. My ISP blocks personal mail servers could this be the reason?

Easily install the SpamBayes proxy server

Can you get to the proxy server through your browser?
It should be at http://localhost:8880/

If you can, and you've set up the mail servers your sending to and recieving from (and given them different ports) in the configuration page, you should be all set.

Then in Mail.app it should just be localhost as the incoming mailserver, and then in the advanced section type the port number you entered in the POP3 proxy options on the configuration page.

If none of that works, which OS are you running?
I haven't tested in 10.2, and it's possible the version of python included with it is not new enough...I'm working on making sure of these things with the installer.
