I worked on a buddies CPU this week. Installed the last free version of
SAProxy and all the SARE rules plus others. (Is that saying I'm running
SARE++?) Worked GREAT! SAProxy version was 1.2x I think. Based on the 2.55
version of SA (yuck.) But all in all it worked wonderful and spam got sent
to a spam folder. 

HE was very happy. I wasn't. For end users it still sucks a$$ they have to
download the junk. Particularly when the ISP _DOES_ use SA. But a default
install. They give no means to tweak settings at the server level. Hell they
don't even tell end users about it. (Actually they do allow you to right
subject rules. Whoopie!)

Its just a bummer for me to see what is probably THE best antispam setup a
pop3 client can use, then realise it still sucks because it is at the client
end. 

We need to get the word out to more admins. Perhaps if we can just get Kobe
Bryant to say "Spamassassin" just once on camera? :P
