Abstract

The occasional unsolicited e-mail may simply be an annoyance, but the flood of spam to which we are all now subject can overwhelm legitimate mail for many users and is a substantial irritation for many people. Fortunately, just as the tools used by spammers have gotten more sophisticated, so have the tools you can use to fight spam. In this article, Brian Goetz looks at SpamAssassin, a state-of-the-art, open source tool for combating spam.
