Package: spamassassin
Version: 3.1.1-1
Severity: minor
README.Debian:
----------------------------------------------
Mail stream integration
-----------------------
Please read README for instructions on setting up SpamAssassin into
your mail stream.
----------------------------------------
But all README says, as far as I can tell, is integration with the
mail stream is not spamassassin's problem. It says that verbosely:
--------------------------------------------------
What SpamAssassin Is Not
------------------------
SpamAssassin is not a program to delete spam, route spam and ham to
separate mailboxes or folders, or send bounces when you receive spam.
Those are mail routing functions, and SpamAssassin is not a mail
router. SpamAssassin is a mail filter or classifier. It will examine
each message presented to it, and assign a score indicating the
liklyhood that the mail is spam. An external program must then
examine this score and do any routing the user wants done. There are
many programs that will easily perform these functions after examining
the score assigned by SpamAssassin.
--------------------------------------------
It might be best to delete the reference, or to point users elsewhere.
