Spamassassin Options

I'm only now figuring out all the
options Spamassassin has available
on the command line. My mistake?
Using the following command to find
opitons:


man spamassassin

What I should have been typing is this:

man spamassassin-run

More and more I'm finding that other commands
are organized like Spamassassin. As the world
gets more complex, commands are organized into
families.

Spamassassin is a family of commands, not just
one command. OK. Now I now where to look for
Spamassassin command line options.

To find out about the family of spamassassin
commands, type this:

man spamassassin

To find out about spamassassin commandline
options, type this:

man spamassassin-run

The lesson? To get where you are going, it
helps to know how to get there.
