Your setup sounds like *exactly* the one I have, but I'm using FreeBSD
instead of Fedora for the server tasks. It works like a charm, but here
are a few things I found awkward.
o SSL/TLS - Make sure you know what you are doing when creating and
using certificates for different roles (client, server, etc.) here, it
can be a bugger to debug when it goes wrong. There's a good howto at
http://www.falkotimme.com/howtos/sendmail_smtp_auth_tls/index.php but,
as ever, google is your friend.

o Subscribe to the spamassassin-users mailing list, and read the FAQ at
http://wiki.apache.org/spamassassin/FrequentlyAskedQuestions and
bookmark the exit0 wiki at http://www.exit0.us/

o Look at Rules Du Jour, see exit0 for more info.

Feel free to message me off-list if you have questions.

Craig.
