Installing Vipul's Razor for use with SpamAssassin

Razor is used to check message signatures against Vipul's Razor collaborative filte ring network. Razor is not available from CPAN – you have to download it from htt p://razor.sourceforge.net/ .

Razor has a large number of dependencies on CPAN modules. Feel free to skip instal ling it, if this makes you nervous; SpamAssassin will still work well without it.

Note that Razor support does not seem to work on Windows systems. Win32 users shoul d disable the Razor tests using "score RAZOR2_CHECK 0".

You (and any users who use Razor) will need to register an account to do so, like t his:

        razor-client          [creates symbolic links]
        razor-admin -create   [creates the razor home]
        razor-admin -register [registers an account]

To use Razor with SpamAssassin, you will need to be using version 2.40 of the Razor modules, or higher. v2.61 or higher is recommended.
