Aloha, I am pondering SpamAssassin for my box. The volume I now get after becoming a moderator on a mailing list is pretty disgusting. I find it even more depressing that most of the UCE does not have opt-outs. Since I can't opt-out, I need a better filter.
I read the fine docs and understand that I need procmail and a few Perl modules etc to work with SpamAssassin. What I am not sure of is whether or not I need to use a tool like fetchmail to fetch my mail form the ISP before can filter it. Anybody familiar with this process? Thanks, Ben
