====Question or Symptom====
I would rather filter my email on my outlook client instead of your
mailserver.

====Resolution====
Outlook 2000 contains some nice features for filtering email. The X-Spam-Level
header contains one star '*' for each hit point that Spamassassin scores.
We'll want to create a rule that filters based on the hits level that you would
like to filter at. For example if you want to block messages that score 6 and
above you would do the following.

# Click on tools
# Click on Rules Wizard
# Click New
# Click 'Start from a blank rule'
# Select 'Check messages when they arrive' the press Next
# Check the 'with specific words in the message header'
# Click the link 'specific words' in the Rule description below
# In the dialog box type 'X-Spam-Level: ******' then press Next
# Place a check in the 'move it to the specified folder' option
# Click the 'specified' link in the Rule description below
# Select a folder (or create a new one to deliver your spam to)
# Press finish

You should now be filtering email that scores 6 spam hit points or greater. To
change this level simply edit the rule you just made and change the number of
stars '*' in the rule definition.
