    Hi all,

    How can I make Postfix prevents outgoing spam by scanning every outgoing message using SpamAssassin? This will be very useful if a defected site is sending spam from the server.

    Thanks

    Thanks Falko,

    Can this tutorial work along with ISPConfig already installed on the system? Can they coexist with each other without any problems?

    Yes, but I'd then disable SpamAssassin and ClamAV for each mail account in ISPConfig.

    Thanks Falko,

    Can't I just use the SpamAssassin that is already installed with ISPConfig to scan outgoing messages, or use it to scan ingoing messages while use the other one to scan outgoing messages?

    I think you can tell amavisd where SpamAssassin is installed (take a look at the amavisd configuration). So there's no need to install a second SpamAssassin.
