 SpamAssassin is now running on my Linux machine in concert with the Ximian Evolution email client. For the first test, I had Evolution apply a filter that changed suspected spam to yellow in the list view (similar to Mail.app on OS X). Evolution pipes each email to SpamAssassin via a shell comand and then marks everything that doesn't return zero as spam.
First results are promising -- after 24 hours there were no false positives, 109 messages correctly identified as spam and 37 misses - spam that was identified as legit. This afternoon, I installed dcc (Distributeed Checksum Clearinghouse) which allows SpamAssassin to compare my incoming email with spam that is automatically identified on the systems of large ISPs - interesting to see if the accuracy goes up. The install process is not for the faint-hearted... but fortunately, it's automated, and, in my case, worked like a champ... |
