<p><b>Usage:</b><br>
|
|
|
|
You can use spamassassin in many ways. But the lightest for the machine is by
|
|
making use of the spamc/spamd combination.
|
|
|
|
<p>First let's add a user and group for the spamd.
|
|
|
|
<pre><b># useradd -s /usr/bin/false -b /nonexistent -u 506 -g =uid _spamdaemon</b></pre>
|
|
|
|
<p>Add this line to <b><code>/etc/rc.local</b></code>:
|
|
<pre><b># @PREFIX@/bin/spamd -u _spamdaemon -d</b></pre>
|
|
<br> Use that same line to start spamd now.
|
|
|
|
<p>The final step: put this at the top of your <b><code>.procmailrc</b></code>.
|
|
If you do not want to use procmail please check the
|
|

<p><b>Customizing:</b><br>
|
|
|
|
The spam filtering is not perfect. But since the feedback is very extensive you
|
|
should be able to do what is necessary to get most spam filtered.
|
|
|
|
<p>If you want to add custom settings to spamassassin you can create the
|
|
file<code><b> @SYSCONFDIR@/mail/spamassassin/local.cf </b></code>. All possible options are
|
|
described in:<code><b> man Mail::SpamAssassin::Conf</b></code>
|
|
|
|

|
|
This is just a mini-HOWTO to get you up and running if you are in a hurry.
