[luau] SpamAssassin and Procmail question

Aloha,

	I am pondering SpamAssassin for my box.  The volume I now get after becoming 
a moderator on a mailing list is pretty disgusting.  I find it even more 
depressing that most of the UCE does not have opt-outs.  Since I can't 
opt-out, I need a better filter.  

	I read the fine docs and understand that I need procmail and a few Perl 
modules etc to work with SpamAssassin.  What I am not sure of is whether or 
not I need to use a tool like fetchmail to fetch my mail form the ISP before 
can filter it.  Anybody familiar with this process?

Thanks,

Ben
