Configuring SpamAssassin from Linux

Tech Computer Center logo

In directory ``.spamassassin'' under your home directory, you will find a file named ``user_prefs''. To customize SpamAssassin, edit this file with your favorite text editor (see Selecting a text editor).

An explanation of how to setup the user_prefs file can be found in that file. Other references to setting up SpamAssassin or configuring the user_prefs file are given in the file.

If you want to disable SpamAssassin completely, edit file .spamassassin/user_prefs and enter the line

      whitelist_from  *
just after the line
      # whitelist_from        someone@somewhere.com
in that file.

See also the SpamAssassin homepage for detailed instructions.
