== How To - Enable spam filtering in Evolution == Spamassassin itself requires no setup in most cases. If you really wanted to know all that, open the Gnome Help browser ('''System -> Help'''), type ''Ctrl-l'' (for "'''L'''ocation), and in the box type "''man:spamassassin''". Alternatively, you could open a terminal ('''Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal''') and type "''man spamassassin''". There is additional documentation in "''/usr/share/doc/spamassassin''".
