  = Integrated into several varieties of MTA =
+ Amavisd-new is a high-performance interface between mailer (message transfer agent - MTA) and one or more content checkers: virus scanners, and/or SpamAssassin. It is written entirely in Perl, assuring high reliability, portability and maintainability. It talks to MTA via (E)SMTP or LMTP, or by using helper programs. Best with Postfix, works with Exim, sendmail/milter or with any MTA as a SMTP relay. http://www.ijs.si/software/amavisd/
  
+ MailScanner now includes support for SpamAssassin. This is "a virus scanner for e-mail designed for use on e-mail gateways. It can also detect a large proportion of unsolicited commercial e-mail (spam) passing through it." MailScanner does an excellent job with file names and types, and can be set to quarantine encrypted .ZIP files and apply normal filename rules and virus scanning inside unencrypted ones. http://www.sng.ecs.soton.ac.uk/mailscanner/

[[[http://openprotect.com|OpenProtect]]] supports postfix, sendmail, qmail and exim.

+ MIMEDefang, a sendmail milter written by Roaring Penguin Software, filters all e-mail messages sent via SMTP through a sendmail installation, blocking common mail viruses, and now -- with the help of SpamAssassin -- spam. "You can use SpamAssassin to test for spam, and then all of the MIMEDefang goodies to reject, manipulate or otherwise mangle the message." Integrated with the MTA to the level of returning 5xx error codes during the SMTP session, so viruses or detected spam can be rejected at the delivery, which notifies the sender, that the mail was rejected, without generating an additional email message.http://www.mimedefang.org/

  = Integrated into Postfix =
- 
   * The easiest way to integrate postfix and spamassassin is to use spamd.  See IntegratedSpamdInPostfix.  This method supports [[http://www.postfix.org/FILTER_README.html|after-queue]] filtering only and is not quite as robust or nearly as efficient.
   * IntegratePostfixViaSpampd is a more robust and efficient solution, but also a more complex one. It supports [[http://www.postfix.org/SMTPD_PROXY_README.html|before-queue]] or after-queue filtering.
   * IntegratedInPostfixWithAmavis is more complicated still but provides a way to plug in ClamAV virus scanning as well. It supports before-queue or after-queue filtering.

  Use SpamAssassin to reject spam at SMTP time with [[http://www.inter7.com/simscan/|Simscan]].  Simscan works natively with [[http://www.qmail.org/netqmail-1.05.tar.gz|Netqmail-1.05]], or with vanilla [[http://cr.yp.to/software/qmail-1.03.tar.gz|qmail-1.03]] with the [[http://www.qmail.org/qmailqueue-patch|qmailqueue patch]].
  
  SpamAssassin can be integrated into qmail system-wide using qmail-scanner, described in IntegratedInQmailWithQmailScanner.

  Since qmail allows users to configure their own delivery options via ~/.qmail files, an alternative option, if you have spamd running and only want to scan mail delivered to local users, is to use ifspamh: see IntegratedInQmailWithIfspamh.
  
  = Integrated into Exim =
- 
  SpamAssassin can be integrated into [[http://www.exim.org/|Exim]] in three ways:
  
   1. As of Exim 4.50, by compiling Exim using WITH_CONTENT_SCAN=yes (see [[http://www.exim.org/exim-html-4.50/doc/html/spec_4.html#SECT4.4|details]], [[http://www.exim.org/exim-html-4.50/doc/html/spec_40.html#SECT40.2|more]]).  As an Exim 4.4x [[http://duncanthrax.net/exiscan-acl/|Exiscan]]-extended ACL condition stack, Exim can reject spam after reading the body, but before Exim acknowledges acceptance of the email. [[http://www.debian.org/|Debian Linux]]'s exim4-daemon-heavy comes with the exiscan patch built in. You can discover its presence in your distro's exim binary directly with the command {{{exim -bV}}} or {{{exim4 -bV}}}; look for the phrase {{{Contains exiscan-acl patch}}}.
  
-  1. As an Exim 4.x loadable module or local_scan.c replacement. [[http://marc.merlins.org/linux/exim/sa.html|SA-Exim]] also allows SpamAssassin to reject spam before its accepted by your MTA. More info at [[http://www.timj.co.uk/linux/exim.php]]. On debian this is the default method: install the sa-exim package and edit /etc/exim4/sa-exim.conf to enable it.

  = Integrated into Mail Avenger =
- 
  [[http://www.mailavenger.org/|Mail Avenger]] is an SMTP Server that allows individual users to run tests on mail messages during SMTP transactions, so that unwanted mail can be rejected before the mail server accepts responsibility for the message.  One advantage of this is that it allows you to bounce messages marked as spam by spamassassin.  (You can, of course, bounce spam after spooling it, but then you risk sending bounce messages to innocent third parties when spammers forge the sender address, as often happens.)
  
  Individual users can bounce spam by putting the following lines in their {{{$HOME/.avenger/rcpt}}} files:
@@ -105, +88 @@

  {{{
  bodytest edinplace -x 111 spamassassin -e 100
  }}}
- 
  To run spamassassin by default for all users, you might place the following code in the file {{{/etc/avenger/default}}}:
  
  {{{
  test -n "$MAIL_ERROR" && exit 0
  bodytest edinplace -x 111 spamassassin -e 100
  }}}
- 
  The first line just rejects the mail immediately if Mail Avenger will end up rejecting it anyway, to save the overhead of firing up spamassassin.
  
  Note that another theoretical advantage of Mail Avenger is that you ought to be able to feed the netpath and SYN fingerprint information it collects into the spamassassin's bayesian filter, but there is not currently any special support for tokenizing the X-Avenger header.
