Dear Brain,
I have setup spamassassin in a RedHat 7.2 with sendmail
8.12.3. Please let me know as to how filter all the spammed messages to a
single folder called as spam using procmail.
It would be also great if you can give links/documents for installation,
configuration and fine tuning of spamassassin
Thanks
