Open proxies are bad. Very bad. 2) Download and unpack SpamAssassin 2.61. Read the README and USAGE files (see http://www.spamassassin.org/full/2.6x/dist/README and http://www.spamassassin.org/full/2.6x/dist/USAGE) You may need to adjust the default locale on Red Hat to avoid problems with perl (this is a well-known problem with Perl, Red Hat, and UTF-8, not an SA problem.) 3) Install the prerequisite perl modules (DB_File, Net::DNS, etc.) then build and install SpamAssassin. This should be fairly straightforward (perl Makefile.PL; make; make test; make install) 4) Based on what you read in the README and USAGE docs (above), decide whether you wish to call SA as a filter within your MTA (site-wide installation) or if it should be called from the delivery agent (per-user installation.) 5) Read the available FAQs and HOWTOs, (start with http://www.spamassassin.org/doc.html) appropriate to your desired setup. Check the mailing list archives at http://news.gmane.org/gmane.mail.spam.spamassassin.general or http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=spamassassin-talk&r=1&w=2 6) When you have a specific question or problem that isn't answered in the docs, the FAQ, or in the mailing list archive, feel free to ask on [SATalk] Note that most of your question is answered in the above resources. People write documentation so they don't have to repeatedly answer the same questions on a support mailing list. We want to help; that's why there's copious documentation... hth, -- Bob ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: IBM Linux Tutorials.
