+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.
