See the INSTALL and UPGRADE files in the distribution for important
installation notes.


GPG Verification Procedure
--------------------------
The release files also have a .asc accompanying them.  The file serves
as an external GPG signature for the given release file.  The signing
key is available via the wwwkeys.pgp.net key server, as well as
http://www.apache.org/dist/spamassassin/KEYS

The key information is:

pub   4096R/F7D39814 2009-12-02
     Key fingerprint = D809 9BC7 9E17 D7E4 9BC2  1E31 FDE5 2F40 F7D3 9814
uid                  SpamAssassin Project Management Committee
<private at spamassassin.apache.org>
uid                  SpamAssassin Signing Key (Code Signing Key,
replacement for 1024D/265FA05B) <dev at spamassassin.apache.org>
sub   4096R/7B3265A5 2009-12-02

To verify a release file, download the file with the accompanying .asc
file and run the following commands:

 gpg -v --keyserver wwwkeys.pgp.net --recv-key F7D39814
 gpg --verify Mail-SpamAssassin-3.3.2.tar.bz2.asc
 gpg --fingerprint F7D39814

Then verify that the key matches the signature.

Note that older versions of gnupg may not be able to complete the
steps above. Specifically, GnuPG v1.0.6, 1.0.7 & 1.2.6 failed while
v1.4.11 worked flawlessly.

See http://www.apache.org/info/verification.html for more information
on verifying Apache releases.

About Apache SpamAssassin
-------------------------

Apache SpamAssassin is a mature, widely-deployed open source project
that serves as a mail filter to identify spam. SpamAssassin uses a
variety of mechanisms including mail header and text analysis,
Bayesian filtering, DNS blocklists, and collaborative filtering
databases. In addition, Apache SpamAssassin has a modular architecture
that allows other technologies to be quickly incorporated as an
addition or as a replacement for existing methods.

Apache SpamAssassin typically runs on a server, classifies and labels
spam before it reaches your mailbox, while allowing other components
of a mail system to act on its results.

Most of the Apache SpamAssassin is written in Perl, with heavily
traversed code paths carefully optimized. Benefits are portability,
robustness and facilitated maintenance. It can run on a wide variety
of POSIX platforms.

The server and the Perl library feels at home on Unix and Linux
platforms, and reportedly also works on MS Windows systems under
ActivePerl.
