In case you want to learn more about spam in general, there are great articles on the subject at www.paulgraham.com. "A Plan For Spam" (http://www.paulgraham.com/spam.html) covers the Bayesian approach. For information on blacklist, including RBL, you can read the "Filters vs. Blacklists" article (http://www.paulgraham.com/falsepositives.html). There are also lots of interesting links at the bottom of these pages - time is the only thing that stops you for learning all there is to know. :-) Just FYI, I've heard many people having problem with SpamAssassin but are more than satisfied with bmf. Bmf is more lightweight than SA and known for being easy to configure and so. But the choice if yours, and I won't propagate for bmf... (ehum..) :-) Happy spam-hunting!
