  If you're using qmail (see IntegratedInMta), you can set up SpamAssassin through Qmail-Scanner, which has a patched version able to delete spam at a given threshold. Alternatively, you can configure the patched version of Qmail-Scanner to reject spam at a given threshold during the smtp session. Rejecting spam is a better approach than  silently deleting or bouncing it because the sender (assuming its a real person) will know the message wasn't delivered and the sending mail server will have to handle the bounce which prevents back scatter from being sent by your mail server. Here's the patched [http://www.bec.at/support/qmail-scanner/ version] and the [http://qmail-scanner.sourceforge.net original].
  
- If you don't want the full Qmail-Scanner you can use [http://www.cisu.net/files/mailparser.c Mailparser] by Eric Bambach which is a very lightweight and very fast C program that drops any message with X-Spam-Flag: YES in the header. Rename /var/qmail/bin/qmail-queue to qmail-queue.orig and add it to the delivery queue after SpamAssassin.
+ If you don't want the full Qmail-Scanner you can try [http://www.cisu.net/blog/?page_id=5 Mailparser] by Eric Bambach. Originally a very lightweight C program but now (9/14/2007) re-implemented in perl it will drop any message that has X-Spam-Flag: YES in the header.
