claws-mail-spamassassin is a plugin (loadable module) for the Claws Mail mailer.

This plugin allows filtering incoming mails usin SpamAssassin to detect spam messages.

The plugin also provides the ability to teach spamd to recognize spam and ham, using the external command sa-learn in local modes or spamd in TCP mode (this one requires SpamAssassin >= 3.1.x).

A toolbar button for marking messages as spam or ham can be added to the main window or the message window (see “Configuration” menu, “Preferences” dialog, “Customize toolbars” option).

Messages classified as spam are moved to the configured folder or the default trash if no folder was configured.
