Installing Spam Assassin - site
Ø Now you need to hook it into your mailer
Ø Two different ways:
Ø Have mailer filter all messages before local
delivery (e.g., sendmail milter)
Ø Have mailer use procmail for local delivery and
users decide to invoke SA
Ø If the mailer filters the message, the
mailer user (root, smmsp) is running
spamassassin (or spamc/spamd) – so per-
user prefs and auto whitelists DO NOT
WORK
Ø Hooks also exist for Exim and Qmail
