If you do not know what it is you are looking at, the next screen could be a little confusing. To
help you understand here's a breakdown of what you should see on the screen and what to do
with it:
required_hits- The number of e-mails received before marked as spam.
rewrite_subject - The tells Spam Assassin if it should rewrite your subject line or not as you define. (1 is yes and 0 is no)
subject_tag - What the spam is marked with in the subject line. (usually ***SPAM*** or something else that could be picked up by your own mail filters on your mail client of choice)
blacklist_from- An e-mail address you definitely want to be marked as spam. (you could also use *@something.com to get every email from that address filtered)
whitelist_from - An e-mail address you definitely do NOT want to be marked as spam.
(You could also use *@something.com to get every email from that address NOT filtered)
Once you're done, just hit save and whatever you defined on the earlier page will now be in effect. If you picked to rewrite the subject, then you could now go into your mail client and write a new "rule" that would filter all mail with "***SPAM***" to go into a SPAM folder so that you could check it from time to time making sure you did not get any false positives.
