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?
Thanks
I use Spamassassin with Kmail and get my mail directly from my Isp. This is how I do it. I add the following two filters at the bottom of my filters in Kmail. 1 Filter Criteria - Match all of the following <any header> contains . (thats a dot) Filter actions - Pipe though spamc Apply this filter to incoming messages. 2 Filter Criteria - Match all of the following X-Spam-Flag equals YES Filter actions - move to folder spam ( a directory i created) bounce Apply this filter to incoming messages -- If this filter matches stop processing here. Thats it. When I get spam its put in a directory called spam so I can check it out and then the mail is bounced. I also put in my boot.local /usr/bin/spamd & so the spam thingy is running when the box fires up. Hope that helps. Btw this is on Suse 8.0 cheers, Glenn
