These instructions may change slightly with each version, so it is wise to read up on what's required each time before proceeding. Note that the configuration is slightly different in each version. You may wish to upgrade perl in conjunction with this since to do either requires disabling the processing of incoming e-mail to the e-mail server.

-http://www.openhandhome.com/howtosa.html provides more detailed step by step information. The below info is largely a digest of said info. Please be advised that though this site provides more detailed step-by-step instructions, in some environments (like CommuniGate Pro with CGPSA), using the older ActivePerl and Net::DNS modules causes a number of problems. In other environments, his instructions may actually perform more reliably.

5. Install or upgrade Perl if required:
* If upgrading, make note of any modules you need to reinstall, uninstall Active``Perl and delete the /perl folder tree.
- * Download Active``Perl 5.8.2.808 (or newer 5.8.2 version) from www.activestate.com. Note: there has been some reported problems using Active``Perl 5.8.4. Apparently SpamAssassin produces NO OUTPUT, which makes it rather unuseful.

8. Copy the backed up configuration files into the site configuration folder, probably c:\perl\site\etc\mail\spamassassin.
0. Simple test (you should have no errors): spamassassin -D < sample-spam.txt
1. Make a test folder on the D: drive. Copy sample-spam.txt and sample-nonspam.txt to that folder.
