That depends mostly on how you want to integrate SA into postfix. Installing SA itself should take about an hour if you've never done it before. Most of that will be reading the INSTALL file :-) Once you've done it before, installing SA itself is only 2-3 minutes. Hooking it to postfix could take a few minutes, could take an hour or two. Methods like this one: http://wiki.apache.org/spamassassin/IntegratedSpamdInPostfix Boil down to reading the docs, and doing some copy-paste into configs.. goes pretty fast. Some other methods offer more efficiency, power and flexibility, but take longer to set up: http://wiki.apache.org/spamassassin/IntegratePostfixViaSpampd http://wiki.apache.org/spamassassin/IntegratedInPostfixWithAmavis (warning: the local.cf example contains outdated options.. and everything it specifies is the default... so it's a little silly, skip that part) Personally I'd go with amavis if you want to integrate antivirus, or do SMTP-layer rejections (ie: issue a 5xx error when the score is too high) Go with the first method if you want something quick and easy that just sticks a subject tag onto spam.
