Welcome to the SpamAssassin WikiWikiWeb! This is intended to provide a place for collaborative documentation of SpamAssassin, and eventually replace the FAQ (http://spamassassin.taint.org/faq/index.cgi?req=index).

Good starting points:

• FixingErrors: things that can go wrong
• AutoWhitelist: the SpamAssassin AWL
• DnsBlocklists: using DNSBLs with SpamAssassin
• NetworkTests: the other network tests: Razor, Pyzor, DCC
• Custom Rule writing help (wiki) and German Ruleset: http://www.exit0.us/
  

Standard Wiki Front Page Stuff

A WikiWikiWeb is a collaborative hypertext environment, with an emphasis on easy access to and modification of information. This one runs on MoinMoin.

You can edit any page by pressing the link at the bottom of the page. Capitalized words joined together form a WikiName, which hyperlinks to another page. The highlighted title searches for all pages that link to the current page. Pages which do not yet exist are linked with a question mark: just follow the link and you can add a definition.

To learn more about what a WikiWikiWeb is, read about MoinMoin:WhyWikiWorks and the MoinMoin:WikiNature. Also, consult the MoinMoin:WikiWikiWebFaq.
