Does amavisd-new happen to have a pre-built front-end similar to
MailWatch?  If not then it's no use to me as I don't have time to build
one from scratch, especially not after the time I've already spent
customizing MailWatch.

Best regards,

Hello,

If you are using postfix, don't use mailscanner, it uses a
non-documented (and therefore not supported) access to the postfix
queue files. Use amavisd-new instead to integrate postfix and
spamassassin.

Anyways, the default rules in spamassassin will NOT get you anything
much than 70% in caught spam - that's what bayes is for. Train it with
YOUR spam, not someone else's!
