    Hi

    Since my server adminstrator doesnt know shit about what he is doing Im going to ask you for a favor. What ways are there to stop spam on a mail server? Where should one look for? What programms should you have installed? Keen to hear from you. :D

    SpamAssassin is what my server uses.

    Well having extensive server admin experience there are a whole whack job of things you can do. Is this for incoming or outgoing spam? Are you using Linux? Are you using a control cpanel?

    Contact me and I can consult with you and lock down the box.
