I use it, I love it. Not that difficult to install really: Follow the
instructions and, assuming you are using procmail for mailbox delivery,
use the following procmail recipe:


    # SpamAssassin 
    :0fw
    | spamc
    
    :0:
    * ^X-Spam-Status: Yes
    ${HOME}/evolution/local/SPAM/mbox/

I've created a SPAM mailbox in Evolution, changed it to maildir type.
That should do the trick.

        cheers,
        Dirk
