Spamassassin is the way to go, but make sure you use sa-update to

I hadn't really played much with spam assassin. Never been overly
impressed by it, nor many other alternatives, nor keen on mail programs
which have "this is junk" buttons without any description of what that
will actually do (play silly games with to/from addresses, analyse it
some other way, etc.). Though have turned on the junk filtering options
on Evolution over the last few weeks, been marking junk as junk, though
haven't seen it automatically detect ANY junk, at all.
So, not having heard of using sa-update before, I decided to see what it
can do. It does this:
Can't locate Archive/Tar.pm in @INC (@INC
It needs Archive::Tar?
How are you installing it? (I jettison the Fedora RPM and use cpan. That
gives you a "canonical" install. Before removing the RPM save the file
/etc/init.d/spamassassin. It is useful when it comes time to make spamd
run.)
I have a dummy spamassassin RPM that installs nothing other than the
knowledge that a dummy spamassassin is present to satisfy the YUM monster.
