Hi all,

My SPAM has reached an unprecedented level ie up to 50% SPAM and so I
have decided to install and investigate SA. I have been a member of the
mailing list for a little while and have read the presentations on the
www.spamassassin.org site but I am still partially lost on how SA works.
I know what it does with the baynesian filters etc but still I do not
know how it works. I have also managed to find out that SA is a VERY
advanced filter that can learn to detect SPAM.

My query is this: Can I use SA if I am using Mozilla as my MTA to send and receive my POP email ie no sendmail, qmail, fetchmail, just Mozilla and sorting it into my local folders on Mozilla?

If I can, what is my next step after installing SA from the SuSE 9.0 CD's to get it to run over the ~/.mozilla directory? Where can I find docs on setup as I have already checked /usr/share/doc/packages/spamassassin and
/perl-spamassassin/ and have not found a HOWTO document as yet?


If not, do I have to use an external engine to collect the mail, run it
thru SA and pass it onto Mozilla? Can those mails marked as SPAM be put
into a specific folder ie Junk on Mozilla?

Ideas and help appreciated
