Dear snadroff,

I've found two webhosts that are provably running SpamAssassin 3.0 or
later. The first is inexpensive, and the second is free.



CornerHost is a longstanding webhost with a good reputation for uptime and 
service. Their basic plan costs $5 a month or $50 a year.


"SpamAssassin 3.0 is now running on all machines."

CornerHost: CornerBlog

CornerHost: Plans

Their webmail interface is Squirrel, a fast, simple, and attractive
GUI that I've used with my own hosting provider.

CornerHost: SquirrelMail login

If you like cheap but you prefer free, you'll love the entry-level
plan at Kydance Hosting. There's a 20 MB quota on this account, which
is not bad at all for something that costs you nothing.


"Spam Scanner:mail-filter/spamassassin-3.0.1"

You don't have to give Kydance Hosting your credit card number or real
name or any personal info at all. Just choose a username and password,
and you're up and running. The webmail interface is SquirrelMail
again. I signed up in the past hour to test the service, and I can
tell you it works. It works quite well.

Hi there.

Good question. I scoured the net and found a reasonably small
ISP/Hosting company that advertises "per contract" E-mail hosting with
an optional SpamAssasin service. No mention of SpamAssassin's version.
You will need to email the webmaster with your needs to get a quote.

Anouther option, although a little bit of work, would be to host your
own site with email and SpamAssassin?? You just need an old pc with
linux, load in spamassasin and your up and going.. this option will
only cost you.. say $50 per year in domain rego, much cheaper than an
unlimited space email box! Of course this is not an option if your not
running broadband.

get back to me.
