+spampd is a program used within an e-mail delivery system to scan messages for possible Unsolicited Commercial E-mail (UCE, aka spam) content.
+It uses an excellent program called SpamAssassin (SA) to do the actual message scanning. spampd acts as a transparent SMTP/LMTP proxy between
+two mail servers, and during the transaction it passes the mail through SA. If SA decides the mail could be spam, then spampd will ask SA to
+add some headers and a report to the message indicating it's spam and why. spampd is written in Perl and should theoretically run on any
+platform supported by Perl and SpamAssassin.
