Alistair McDonald [EMAIL PROTECTED] Here is his post about the book: " Hello, I am the author of a book on SpamAssassin, published by Packt Publishing. Sample chapters of the book can be downloaded from http://www.spamassassinbook.com/. I intend to update the book (which already covers SA 3). I wondered if there were any subjects that you (the SA user community) feel should be covered. Here is the table of contents from the current book: 1. Introducing Spam 2. Spam and Anti-Spam techniques 3. Open Relays 4. Protecting Email Addresses 5. Detecting Spam 6. Installing SpamAssassin 7. Configuration Files 8. Using SpamAssassin 9. Bayesian Filtering Free Chapter 10. Look and Feel 11. Network Tests Free Chapter 12. Rules 13. Improving Filtering 14. Performance 15. Housekeeping and Reporting 16. Building an Anti-Spam Gateway 17. Email Clients 18. Choosing other Spam Tools The reviews on Amazon have generally been favourable, and as a result of comments there I intend to increase coverage of SURBLs, for example. The Amazon page for the book is http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/1904811124 By the way, if you have a forum for reviewing the book (E.g. a weblog), and you'd like a review copy of the existing book, then please get in touch.
