-We're going to install SpamAssassin 3.0.0-pre2, and add in SPF, Razor, Pyzor, DCC.  We're going to set up a mistake-based Bayesian learner (including forwarding the mail to another account), as described at ProcmailToForwardMail.  This assumes that your system already has procmail installed, and has a new enough Perl and Python to work with this software, plus a number of the standard Perl modules, such as Net::DNS and DB_File.  You need these two installed to use DNSBLs and Bayes, both of which are important for good performance.

Even more important, we need to tell Perl where to find the packages we're installing locally, and we try to work around a language bug with some version of Perl 5.8.

 Note that many systems already have SpamAssassin and the support packages installed, in which case this whole page would be unnecessary.  However, if you to run the newest version of SpamAssassin and all the related packages, you can always guarantee the setup by installing it yourself in your own directory.  This also requires, of course, for you to update it yourself as new versions are released.  We're going to download the packages into {{{$HOME/src}}}.
