Enabling spamassassin in claws email

I was using sylpheed  so i have decided to enable local scanning for this i needed to upgrade the email client to claws mail (it does have the sa scanning plugin)

so first remove the sylpheed , then install claws email
sudo apt-get install claws-mail
then install the sa plugin

claws-mail-spamassassin


next step is to enable the spamd daemon

in /etc/default/spamassassin

enable
ENABLED=1


sudo /etc/init.d/spamassassin restart

Next load the plugin in the email client

and then configure it to use the local daemon

You can see it at work by marking sad figure over the emails with spam
I have created a filter to move them to Trash folder

Why amazon ec2 is better than heroku : it's the price

Compared with a ronin database instance = 200$

For 57.6$ per month if we calculate month=30 days on ec2 i can get a small ubuntu linux instance with 1.7G of ram with a lot more than 10.000 rows

http://aws.amazon.com/ec2/instance-types/

After that installing a firebird database can be easy if i choose a ubuntu instance

Next you can add nginx/django just for fun

For backup there are many python scripts to backup to s3/ebs snapshots
