Hi Bart. The first paragraph says that all such things as internal
mailing lists, mail within the domain, etc., should have been handled
before the spam filter is executed.

The procmail script to filter spam has its own web page now:

I'd just like to point out that you should read that web page VERY
carefully before installing this script. In particular:
Discard the message if it is to the user's domain, but not specifically
to the user:
:0
* !^TO_user(_at_)userdomain\(_dot_)com
* ^TO_[-a-z0-9_(_dot_)]+(_at_)userdomain\(_dot_)com
/dev/null
If the message is not to the user, but to someone else in the user's
domain, then discard the message in the /dev/null mail box.
This will discard messages sent to internal mailing lists (e.g., sendmail
aliases that expand to several addresses at a given site) without even
considering their spam score. That seems a pretty dangerous rule to have
active by default.
