You're right. 'Best' is subjective.
I want a quick and well documented way of installing 'some' util that
interacts with sendmail, so I can use spamd. I have things running pretty
slick with the courier package (mailfilter) on one server, but I want to
change to sendmail on another and simply *need* spamassassin to run.
I don't use procmail(!) otherwise the question was not asked.
A .procmailrc file would take care of this quite as easy as my mailfilter
file does now. But as said, I run sendmail with lmpt to cyrus.
Spam_milter is mentioned; I guess this is just for spamassassin, while
MIMEDefang can also integrate a (future) use of virus filtering.
I'll study some more..
