Hello Spyros,

the sa_filter.pl mentioned in my earlier mails invokes spamc, which
has to be in Your $PATH.

spamc connects to spamd to have the mail checked.

One could also use spamassassin instead of spamc/spamd
But doing so could cause system overload on machines with high mail
throughput. The spamassassin script initializes a lot each time it
gets called. A spamd in the background is already initialized and
spamc does not much.

Bye,
Hagen

Subject: [xmail] a simple question

Taken from the spamassassin page :

.................................................................................................................
Installation
------------

Simply copy the two executables to where you want them.  Then, configure 
your
system to run spamd in the background, and where your mailer invokes
'spamassassin' instead invoke 'spamc'.  It's that easy!
.................................................................................................................

"spamd" and "spamc" there being in the limelight. OK ! "where your mailer 
invokes
'spamassassin' instead invoke 'spamc'. It's that easy !" Whoa ! Not for me 
it isn't !

Would anyone know how exactly one invokes spamassassin ? Don't remember 
doing
that!

TIA,
s.
