that server should allow everybody to have control of their mta
and eliminate most spams .. way before it even hits the
fetchmail/exim/procmail/mutt process
and $9/yr for a domain name hosted on their own pc sitting at home..
a good solution to preventing/minimizing spam..
- except one does have to figure out how to stop spam
at various points
- lots of reading on exim/sendmail/postfix/qmail/etc
( use its antispam features first )
sendmail antispam/antivirus stuff
http://www.Linux-Sec.net/Mail/sendmail.gwif.html
( 5 minutes to get rid of most ( say 80% - 90% of the spam ))
ie... in answer to the original postsers question .. of which tool...
its NOT spamassassin or its variants
get control of your MTA first ( eg host your own domain )
and use foo@family.com if you have to ...
have fun
