  Description     : milter for spam filtering with SpamAssassin

SpamAssassin Milter is a milter application that filters email through
SpamAssassin server using the spamc client. It is a light-weight
component that serves to integrate Apache SpamAssassin with a
milter-capable MTA (mail server) such as Postfix. Its task is thus
helping combat spam on email sites.

Debian already has package spamass-milter, which serves the same
function. This new alternative is not exactly the same: It does a few
things better (eg automatic macro negotiation, skipping large bodies),
some things differently (eg header handling logic, no forking), and some
things are (currently) left out. spamass-milter hasn’t been active for
many years, so this could also be a fresh start.

I used to be a user of spamass-milter for three years or so and have
recently successfully switched to this alternative.

I would maintain this package through sponsored uploads.
