Linux command line based spam checker?

Question

Does a command line based spam checker exist?

We have created a mailbox at a 3rd party, and unfortunately decided on spam checking 'disabled' in the initial setup.

There is no way to re-enable spam checking, the mailbox must be delete (and thus all contents lost) and re-created.

Does anything exist where we can pump in either:

A) Subject + from + to + body + all other fields.

OR

B) Raw message dump (headers + body).

And the command line will let us know weather the email is possibly spam?

Thanks.

Answer 1

You may be looking for SpamAssassin. It uses various mechanisms for identifying spam, including text analysis, Bayesian filtering, DNS blocklists, and collaborative filtering databases.

Answer 2

bogofilter might be another option.
