This is probably a very dumb question, but here goes.  I'll be going on 
vacation in about a month and instead of coming back to a spam folder full of 
a couple of thousand messages I'd just like to not even have them tossed into 
the spam folder. I currently have this in my .procmailrc file:

:0
* ^X-Spam-Flag: YES
$JUNKMAIL

Would just changing the $JUNKMAIL to /dev/null drop all spam into a black 
hole? I checked the examples man page and the others, did find one example 
where /dev/null was used in a linuxgazette article, but want to make sure 
this is the correct way.

You can use

    :0
    * ^X-Spam-Flag: YES
    /dev/null

but I personaly prefer to move the SPAM to folders and
then from time to time I check it manualy IF (!!!) I
think, I have lost a message accidantly...

Thanks
