Hi. I'm currently evaluating SpamAssassin for use in filtering /
tagging spam, and I'm curious to know how well it performs. That is, on
a given bit of hardware, let's say P-III @ 1GHz, 1GB Ram, about how many
messages could spam assassin handle? Any pointers?
Much thank

/root/.spamassassin/ contains what looks like thousands of bayes_* files.

I'm at my wits end. I'm pretty sure that I have my ~/.procmail file set

It may be because it is a legitimatly constructed email, and not one
sent from a mass mailer program or anything like that.

Does SA-lean learn where an email originates, and give that domain a
higher score?

Is it possible for me to check if SA is being called twice? I call it in
my procmailrc but, I think maybe postfix calls it too, because it takes
an age for my email to be scanned

How can I turn off the above check? It's adding 2.7 points to my mail,
and making a look of my mail from yahoo groups SPAM.
Or instead, how can I add some email addresses to a white list, so that
they don't get checked for spam?

I want to setup a machine, with a sole purpose, of scanning email. All
email to be delivered to my domain, will be accepted by this machine,
and then, after scanning delivered to my mail server.
How can I achieve such a setup?

Thanks for the tip, I have made the change, but still messages which are
blatantly spam, seem to make it into my inbox.
Also, is it possible for me to setup a mailbox, so that I can forward
spam to it, so that similar mails also get marked as spam?

Now that my mail is actually getting filtered, I'd like to know how I
can teach SA, what I actually consider to be spam? I'm not sure how to

I want to be able to forward mail to an alias, and have the attachment

I have just installed SA on my laptop, and i want to get it working,
before i install it on my netork systems. The trouble is, all spam seems
to STILL be getting through, without being marked.

I have a feeleing that my ~/.procmailrc files are being skipped, it
seems that email being delivered via fetchmail, is not following the
rules in these files. Is there anyway, to force fetchmail to send all
mail it collects to procmail?
