Spamassassin itself requires no setup in most cases. If you really wanted to know all that, open the Gnome Help browser ('''System -> Help'''), type ''Ctrl-l'' (for "'''L'''ocation), and in the box type "''man:spamassassin''". Alternatively, you could open a terminal ('''Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal''') and type "''man spamassassin''". There is additional documentation in "''/usr/share/doc/spamassassin''". ('''Places -> Home Folder''', type ''Ctrl-l'' ('''L'''ocation), then enter "''/usr/share/doc/spamassassin''".)

Use caution only as directed this advice is not that of a doctor, your mileage may vary buy one get one free.
