I am a long time user of the Clark distro and ditributor, so maybe can
help you out. Installing fetchmail and SpamAssassin under the distro is
simply "apt-get install cc-spamassassin fetchmail" which brings in all
of the Clark configuration. :)

As usual, I post my questions without enough context.

The mail server in question is based on the ClarkConnect distribution.  
ClarkConnect 2.0 is based on Red Hat 9 and comes with lots of stuff 
pre-configured.  Very easy to setup.  It had the Postfix and
SpamAssassin 
already to go with a very simple web based adminitration interface.  The
web 
based interface just has simple enable options and not much else.  After
that 
it should "just work."

The problem is that ClarkConnect does not come with fetchmail so I
installed 
that myself manually.  That is why I think the default SpamAssassin
operation 
is not "seeing" the email from fetchmail and is therefore not filtering
it.  
Since I did not fully configure the SpamAssassin, I was asking for quick

information or pointers to where the issue may lie.
