is down from around 500 that I normally get p

I don't know how you configured pf, but since I use the black list
I've been doing some more digging since my last post, and have
figured out that the spam is not being blocked by pf, as I suspected
(since it wasn't showing up in my spam folder), but by spamassassin

Hi all,
I have Claws-Mail and spamd installed (from ports) and although I have

HI
you need to tell the MTA to pass email through spamassassin/clamav
somehow. Depending on what you're MTA is (sendmail/exim/postfix etc)
its different.
