Frequently asked questions
How does this integrate with existing mail servers?
The product runs as a system service that MTAs can query; the MTA must forward messages to the SpamAssassin daemon and then act on the spam score headers returned.
Which Windows versions are supported?
Installation documentation states the product runs on 64-bit Windows editions starting with Windows 8 and Windows Server 2012 and later.
How are SpamAssassin rules updated?
The service performs periodic updates of SpamAssassin rule sets and can download rule updates to keep detection rules current.
How can administrators verify the service is running?
Check for the spamd process in Task Manager, review the SpamAssassin event log in Windows Event Viewer, or query the daemon with spamc.exe for X-Spam headers.
Can it be used with Microsoft Exchange Server?
Exchange has no native SpamAssassin interface; JAM recommends using an Exchange connector or the vendor's Exchange Server Toolbox to integrate SpamAssassin with Exchange.
