So, I had to do it today, Why was I afraid ? Don't ask, No answer, I don't know.

Now for the dirty work.

As usual: I'm using Debian woody.

# apt-get install spamassassin
# emacs /etc/default/spamassassin

# /etc/default/spamd.conf
# Duncan Findlay
# November 2001

# WARNING read README.spamd before using.  THERE ARE SECURITY RISKS!

# Change to one to enable spamd
ENABLED=1

# Options
# See man spamd for possible options. The -d option is automatically added.
OPTIONS="-x"
# was -c only

# emacs /etc/spamassassin/local.cf

# Add your own customisations to this file.  See 'man Mail::SpamAssassin::Conf'
# for details of what can be tweaked.
#
rewrite_subject 1
report_safe 0

# emacs /etc/procmailrc

#LOGFILE=/tmp/procmail.log
#VERBOSE=on # Debugging

:0fw
* < 256000
| spamc

# /etc/init.d/spamasassin restart
run rcconf and ensure that spamassassin is checked.
Done.

Saw you are running Debian woody and spamassasin and postfix. That's the same configuration as me. We should keep in touch in case we can help one another. You can e-mail me at stevedondley 'plus the at sign' comcast 'plus the dot' net

I'm not working for this comp. anymore. But I adore the old sheriff.
Woody on my home server, sarge on my laptop. So even if I'm not administrating this server anymore, I guess I can still be fine :-)
