Actually, spamassassin as setup runs as a deamon (spamd), and hooks into Postfix as a filter....Here's what I've got (9.1 based):tarballs for SpamAssasin and MailScanner and set them up together as shown in the mailscanner site.
But for a distribution intended for general consumer use, it would be
great if the default install had a spam filter installed by default as
most people will want one but will not be willing to go to the trouble
of learning how to configure it.
The rpms:
perl-Mail-SpamAssassin
spamassassin
perl-Digest-Nilsimsa
perl-Digest-SHA1
perl-MailTools
perl-Net-DNS
perl-Razor-Agent
Isn't it just easyer to use amavisd-new? You don't need to start a bunch of programms for every mail and you can use a virus scanner too.
Thanks,
