I am running Mandrake Linux 9.2 (sbmldap) as a Mail Server (Postfix) on a entire site. SpamAssassin has been activated. Most of the mails which we receive has a subject line: ***SPAM***. Please advice me how to disable/cancel SpamAssassin or how to clear the ***SPAM*** subject line. I have done some searching on the "Net", no luck. I am really out of ideas. Please advice

You will find the Spamassassin Dokumentation on

http://au.spamassassin.org/doc.html

It will tell You how to configure it. There is also a link to a nice Configuration Toll

on this Page. Don't forget to look at the links at the Bottom of teh Page.

The integration to various MTAs on the Apache-Wiki

http://wiki.apache.org/spamassassin/IntegratedInMta

There is allways the solution to uninstall. Mandrake uses RPMs, as far as I know, so try

rpm -e spammassassin

by support

very simple.

Default setting in the spamassassin config file (local.cf) has an option to "rewrite suject" and it is set to 1 (turned on).

local.cf is usually in /etc/mail/spamassassin, though may be elsewhere on mandrake. do a find to source it.

Once you change it restart spamassassin.

No more rewritten subjects.
