This tutorial shows how to set up an Ubuntu Hardy Heron (8.04 LTS) based server as a spamfilter in Gateway mode. In the end, you will have a SpamSnake Gateway which will relay clean emails to your MTA. You will also be able to view your incoming queue, train your SpamSnake and carry out a few more advanced operations via MailWatch.

I cannot offer any guarantees that this will work for you, the same way it’s working for me.

I will use the following software:

• Web Server: Apache 2.2 with PHP 5.2.4 and Ruby
• Database Server: MySQL 5.0
• Mail Server: Postfix
• DNS Server: BIND9
• PHP: PHP5
• MailScanner: MailScanner v4.68.8
• MailWatch: MailWatch v1.0.4
