Hi all.  I setup Spamassassin last night through procmail to nuke spam
coming to my home a/c.  It is a great tool.  Check it out at
http://www.spamassassin.org.

Spamassassin is highly configurable.  Bt default it marks the email with a
specific subject that can then easily be filtered.  I filter it into my
spam folder which I then check every few days in case of false positives.

Next I'll be setting up to filter all mail at the MTA (probably using a
sendmail milter) as an experiment.
Cheers,
	Rob
