Hi all...
Ok, I really really want to stop the hot girl ads etc. So I installed Spamassassin. But now what? I don't see anyway of getting the damn thing to start working! I use KDE and Kmail, but no where does the how-to's talk about Kmail. SO, would one of you kind people out there give me a 1,2,3 list of how to get this working?

You'll have to use fetchmail to get the mail from your isp's server then procmail to sort it and then spamassassin to filter out the spam(or at least that's how I do it).
No, you don't. I'm currently using Kmail and Spamassassin together without a local MDA, and have been doing so since December 2001. Try going to http://kmail.kde.org/tools.html You should find a simple step-by-step guide to making it work with a regular POP feed. hope this helps, Gideon Hallett.
