How to test SpamAssassin
To test the spam filter, it is necessary to send a Gtube test spam email using the command below (Replacing emailonserver@example.com with a real email account on the server). If the Anti-spam is working correctly you will see it listed in the maillog and in Warden log under Warden -> Logs -> Message Log. While testing, note that Gtube test email gives +1000 scores to spam. So, even if a mailbox is in the whitelist, mail still be detected as spam because whitelisted email gets -100 scores.
