If {{spamassassin -tD < \[message_file\]}} returns a properly filtered message, then [SpamAssassin] is working appropriately. The best messages to use for this test are the samples included with the distribution, \[http://spamassassin.org/full/3.0.x/dist/sample-spam.txt sample-spam.txt\] and \[http://spamassassin.org/full/3.0.x/dist/sample-nonspam.txt sample-nonspam.txt\].

SpamAssassin-Users (see MailingLists) is mainly about making the core SpamAssassin code work well, not on integrating it with other mail platforms. For integration questions, you should check with the folks who support your MTA filter (MIMEdefang, qmail-scanner, spampd, etc), using You may get a better answer by asking your query in a forum dedicated to the mail system you're using.
