==== Spamassassin ====

Setup on Debian for use with EXIM.

===Install===

apt-get install spamassassin sa-compile

===Configure===

==Local==

Edit /etc/spamassassin/local.cf to add local rules.

==Compile==

Compiling rules will speed up spamd but it will work otherwise.

__compile-spamd.sh__
<code>
#! /bin/sh
sa-compile
chown -R debian-spamd:debian-spamd /var/lib/spamassassin
chmod -R go-w,go+rX /var/lib/spamassassin/compiled
kill -HUP `cat /var/run/spamd.pid`
exit 0
</code>

==Update==

Run from cron once per day to download new rules and recompile.

__update-spamd.sh__
<code>
#! /bin/sh
sa-update --nogpg
if test $? -eq 0; then
    compile-spamd.sh
fi
exit 0
</code>


===Run it===

<code>
#! /bin/sh
export TZ="UTC"
rm -f /var/run/spamd.pid
exec /usr/sbin/spamd --helper-home-dir=/var/lib/spamassassin --create-prefs --nouser-config -udebian-spamd -gdebian-spamd --socketpath=/var/run/spamd.sock --socketowner=debian-spamd --socketgroup=debian-spamd --socketmode=0777 --max-children 5 --pidfile /var/run/spamd.pid
</code>

=== Plugin===

===Spam===

Here is a PHP command line tool to send test spam.

Change Host,  Sender and addAddress as appropriate.

<code>
#! /usr/bin/php -q

require_once 'libphp-phpmailer/src/Exception.php';
require_once 'libphp-phpmailer/src/OAuth.php';

require_once 'libphp-phpmailer/src/SMTP.php';

use PHPMailer\PHPMailer\PHPMailer;
use PHPMailer\PHPMailer\SMTP;
use PHPMailer\PHPMailer\Exception;

$mail = new PHPMailer(true);

$mail->SMTPDebug = SMTP::DEBUG_SERVER;
$mail->isSMTP();
$mail->Host = 'localhost';
$mail->SMTPAuth = false;

$mail->Sender = "newsletter-root=example.com@mail.example.com";

$mail->setFrom('root@example.com', 'SPAM');
$mail->addAddress('root@example.com', "SPAM");
$mail->addReplyTo('root@example.com', 'SPAM');

$mail->isHTML(false);
$mail->Subject = 'Subject';
$mail->Body = 'Body';

try {
    $mail->send();
}
catch (Exception $e) {
    echo $e->getMessage();
}
