-----Original Message----- From: Chris Norman [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, February 24, 2006 10:26 AM To: users@spamassassin.apache.org Subject: How easy is Spam Assassin really? I host about 10 domains on a w2k server (when you're done mocking, please continue). Currently, I use ASSP which isn't very effective but helps a lot. Occasionally, I'll get fed up and dig into implementing SA instead but then stop short after readying about how it doesn't run as a service well et al. However, it runs well as a service and I actually run 4 simultaneous instances of it for various levels of filtering. Also, since it is bayes based, it allows for unique per domain databases for those that need it. There are some commercial SA solutions (Catch! is one I keep circling back to because of it's unlimited domains / users versus price). But it doesn't have an obvious popb4smtp engine that I can see. Then, I see the flood of emails in this list about the rules, etc. Do you have to constantly tune your rules? How often do you need to do this for it to be effective? Some honest feedback and maybe a link or two would be helpful. Implementing SA on a win32 doesn't seem like it'd be too difficult, but every configuration is unique I'm sure. Thanks in advance, Chris
