I'm looking into installing SpamAssassin on our mail server. I've looked through the docs and have the info I need for getting spapd working with Sendmail.
Can anyone suggest configuration options for a commercial mail server? From reading the conf doc I assume I'd set required_score to 12; beyond that I'm not sure what to do. Also, after spam is detected I assume from the docs it's mailed to the system admin? What are the strategies for dealing with false positives? I saw in one of the presentations that 'default opt-out' should be the policy for ISPs. How do you filter out users who haven't opted in? Also, should I start out with SpamAssassin and get comfortable with it before adding Razor? Sorry for the load of questions. I'd appreciate answers and/or pointing me to docs/tutorials to answer the above.
