- SpamAssassin is a mail filter to identify spam.
- Using its rule base and optional network sources (DNS-based lists and
- collaborative spam-tracking databases), it carries out a wide range of
- heuristic tests on mail headers and body text to identify "spam", also
- known as unsolicited commercial email.
- Once identified, the mail can then be optionally tagged as spam for
- later filtering using the user's own mail user-agent application.
- SpamAssassin requires very little configuration; you do not need
- to continually update it with details of your mail accounts, mailing
- list memberships, etc. It accomplishes filtering without this
- knowledge, as much as possible.
- Read ${PREFIX}/share/doc/SpamAssassin/README
- for further installation instructions.
- Or if you are in a hurry you can read:
- ${PREFIX}/share/doc/SpamAssassin/OpenBSD-SpamAssassin-mini-howto.html
- The SpamAssassin Wiki is available at <http://wiki.apache.org/spamassassin>
- and contains up-to-date information on configuring SpamAssassin, and using
- some of the more advanced features of it.
