I implement it by adding this to /etc/procmailrc

:0fw
* < 256000
* !^X-Loop: spamchecked_haz
	| formail -A "X-Loop: spamchecked_haz" | spamc


I would like spamassassin to check all mail for any domains I host for, what
do I need to change?

Thanks in advance.

It depends on how you've implemented spamassassin. i.e. when do you scan for
spam? At local delivery time using e.g. procmail or via a daemon that
processes the mail as it comes in e.g. amavis?

I personally use amavisd-new which scans mail for both spam and virii and
I've got it configured with postfix to scan emails as they pass through the
MTA - that way they are scanned in both directions (stops viruses getting
out) and it scans emails before sending them on to other MX's.

Regards,
Josh.
