I was excited, then I saw the script. :) 

This will install many instances of SA on the system. While it will work, it
just doesn't seem right. It would be better to install sitewide and then
just customize the calling of SA in users local procmail file. This way you
just have to copy the procmail and sendmail local config dir. Much less
storage taken up!

Subject: [SAtalk] Spam Assassin Installer


Hi folks!

I installed SpamAssassin on my own account here at work a couple weeks
ago, and saw how cool it was, and then I showed it to my boss. Then she
wanted it and mentioned it to the CEO. He wanted it, too. Then I brought
it up in a programmers meeting and lots of people wanted it. Still, we
don't want to install it on everyone's account. Why, you ask? Well, some
of our clients like to send (*coughannoyingcough*) flamboyantly flashy
HTML mail. Further, missing even 1 mail from a client would be
unacceptable. So, the secretaries who get the email from our clients don't
get spam protection, nor do our tech support people. Some sales people,
all managers, and all programmers do.

Anyhoo, I wrote a little perl script that takes the name of a user and
automagically installs SpamAssassin for them. It's not quite ready for
primetime, but I thought I'd send in what I had and maybe get some
comments on it. Take a look, lemme know what you think.

Thanks!
