SpamAssassin is an open source server daemon used to examine and mark email that it identifies as spam. SpamAssassin does nothing but mark the email as spam; it is up to the mail client to setup rules to filter the marked emails out.

If you are having a problem which is unrelated to programming SpamAssassin, you should likely not be posting to Stack Overflow.
