Hi Aaron:

Yes, I have configured evo to use spamassassin, I always used it and 
worked well, but as I said before, in the last months it is not working 
as before. Now I have switched to bogofilter and it seems to be faster 
and it's working well... let's see what happens in a near future :)

All the best,
Germán.
