You want spamd running as a daemon. Then you want lines like this in your procmailrc :0 * < 500000 * !^List-Id: .*(spamassassin\.apache.\org) | /usr/bin/spamc -t 150 -u $LOGNAME The third line is my personal filter to prevent spamassassin triggering on the SpamAssassin list. Any spam there is FOOD for the anti-spam rules folks. {^_-} This will add markups, probably the default markups. http://www.spamassassin.org/ is a starting source for information. The Wiki link points to the (admittedly pathetic) online documentation. This also has a link to the users mailing list. You're certainly welcome there. http://www.rulesemporium.com/ is a nice place to get pre-canned sets of effective rules to supplement the stock rules. Other help is found with man spamassassin, etc. Also check out man or perldoc for Mail::SpamAssassin::Conf for configuration help. {^_^}
