Do you hate e-mail spam?  So do I.  Good thing we have SpamAssassin - my favorite spam filter appliance.  It filters about 80% of spam sent to my inbox.  If your web host provider runs on Cpanel, then you’re lucky as it is pretty easy to turn SpamAssassin via Cpanel.  Here’s how:

1. Log on to CPanel
2. Under Mail, click ‘SpamAssassin’
3. Click ‘Enable SpamAssassin’
4. You may also choose to click ‘Enable Spam Box’.  This way, you can still review what emails were filtered out just in case some ‘good’ mail was identified as spam.  So far, I have never seen good mail in my spam box.

That’s about it!  SpamAssassin - my favor spam filter appliance!!!  And it’s free!!!
