-====== SpamAssassin - Stopping Spam ======
-===== Install Mail::Audit =====
-SpamAssassin needs the **Mail::Audit** module for Perl. Install Mail::Audit (via CPAN)
-<code bash>
-#perl -MCPAN -e shell
-cpan> install Mail::Audit
-cpan> quit
-</code>
-===== Install Spam Assassin Modules =====
-Install SpamAssassin from CPAN, which will also install all other required modules too.
-<code bash>
-# perl -MCPAN -e shell
-cpan> install Mail::SpamAssassin
-</code>
-It maybe will ask you for some needed modules that aren't installed yet - Answer yes and Perl will fetch and install them, too.
-<code perl>
-cpan> quit
-</code>
-===== Run the recommended tests =====
-First look if the install succeded by running:
-<code bash>
-# which spamassassin
-/usr/local/bin/spamassassin
-</code>
-If you don't get a right answer something failed... or your PATH-variable isn't set right...
-Now lets scan a no spam mail with
-<code bash>
-# spamassassin -t <sample-nonspam.txt |less
-</code>
-Look for a line like this in the output:
-<code>
-X-Spam-Status: No, hits=0 required=5 tests=
-</code>
-Okay fine - now try a bad spam message:
-<code bash>
-# spamassassin -t <sample-spam.txt |less
-</code>
-which should produce some lines like that:
-<code>
-X-Spam-Status: Yes, hits=12 required=5 tests=NO_REAL_NAME,UNDISC_RECIPS,INVALID_DATE,MSGID_HAS_NO_AT,REMOVE_SUBJ,RCVD_IN_OSIRUSOFT_COM
-X-Spam-Flag: YES
-</code>
-Okay everything seems working... that was the easy part :-)
-<code perl>
-#!/usr/bin/perl
-# This is an small wrapper script around Mail::SpamAssassin for the use
-# with the exim MTA.
-# Modified to eliminate the buggy Mail::Audit use.
-# This modification also eliminates the need to re-submit the message
-# to Exim for delivery to the mail spool. Requires localuser director
-# to use the spamcheck transport so it knows where to append to.
-# It is released under the Terms of GNU General Public License (GPL) so
-# use at your own risk!
-use Mail::SpamAssassin;
-use Mail::SpamAssassin::NoMailAudit;
-$savespam = 1;                      #1/0 should spam be saved centrally?
-$spamfile = '/var/mail/spam';       #If you said 1 above - where to put
-                                    #that nasty spam? Be sure this mailbox

-$status->rewrite_mail ();
-#Auto Report to Vipul's Razor:
-$status->handle_auto_report ();
-if ($status->is_spam ()) {
-  if ($savespam) {
-    $mail->accept($spamfile); # Deliver to spamfile
-  } else {
-    $mail->accept();          # Deliver to user's mailbox
