How can I set up SpamAssassin-like “out-of-the-box filtering” for my users?
A. DSPAM supports global classification groups and global merged groups for this purpose. Global classification groups allows DSPAM to provide a filtering “parent” relationship with all new users on the system, until they have built their own useful dictionaries. Merged groups are similar, but also allow the user to train against the global database; their training data is “merged” with the global database in real-time, allowing them to customize DSPAM to their own behavior. In both cases, users who do not wish to ever forward in spam will have the benefit of being protected by the global dictionary. See the README for more information about both types of groups.
