[Dovecot] deploying dspam

[Rick Flower]

Thanks for mentioning dspam.. I've never heard of it.. I've been using  
Spamassassin for a while and while it does work pretty good with my  
exim mail server (and rejecting them at SMTP time), the overhead for  
the Perl interpretter is killing me.  I'm running on a itty bitty box  
with only 64Mb of RAM and SA consumes about 20Mb for each instance..  
I'll be switching if possible (it's building right now).

Thanks!
