content checking with SA?

[nu...@yahoo.com]

hello,

i've checked the faq under the section: i'm not a
spammer and could not find what i'm looking for.

we send out legitimate newsletters and would like to
know of a way to apply the spam assassin check to the
content of our email before sending out.  i google'd
around for "spam content checker" and found two
popular sites on:

lyris.com
e-filtrate.com

lyris mentions that they use spamassassin on their
site.  are there apis for SA that will allow a
marketeer to check their mail before sending out?

thanks,
simon

I'd feel a lot better answering your question if you had
a real name and address (how do we know you're not a spammer?),
but the quick answer is that you can feed your message into
SpamAssassin from the command line.  See the wiki or faq
or manual.
