Spam Assassin

Spam Assassin is a mail filter installed on a mail server used to identify spam. It checks for spam using a large number of pre-set rules that check the header, body, and sender of all e-mail messages sent to your domain mailbox.

Configuring Spam Assassin

You can change how Spam Assassin deals with spam. The following options are available:

* required_hits - The number of e-mails received before a certain e-mail is considered spam.

* rewrite_subject - Alter the subject line of spam e-mail. Enter 1 to enable or 0 to disable.

* subject_tag - Text added to the subject line of spam e-mails. rewrite_subject must be enabled for this to work.

* blacklist_from - Enter an e-mail address that you always want classified as spam. The asterix symbol (*) can be used as a wildcard.

* whitelist_from - Enter an e-mail address that you never want classified as spam. The asterix symbol (*) can be used as a wildcard.
