How do I Use SpamAssassin?
To install SpamAssassin, you must • Login to CUUG ssh your-login@concord.cuug.ab.ca • Login to the mail server once you are “inside CUUG” ssh cola.cuug.ab.ca • Run the SpamAssassin setup command sa-setup.sh • logout • logout If you don’t already have a personal .procmailrc file, then the standard CUUG .procmailrc will be copied to your home directory (from mail:/etc/mail/spamassassin/procmailrc). This file tells CUUG’s mail server to filter your email with SpamAssassin The very next e-mail you receive will be checked by SpamAssassin. Every email will be given a “spamminess” score. Email that scores too high will be thrown out. Email that is probably spam will be stored in a mail folder called “probably-spam”.
