	Hi,

	I'd be grateful for some tips on how to get dspam up.   I 
	installed it after reading your mail; then I waded into the
	long README and felt nearly overwhelmed.  I've used mysql
	to set up several message boards,, but that's about the
	extent of my knowledge.  

	I've been using /etc/mail/access that catches tons of 
	spam.  It would be great if dspam could do the rest!

	tia,

	gary
