Slow I can handle, but I can't even get slow.
"Edit->Preferences->Mail Preferences->Junk->Check incoming mail for
junk" is checked, as is "include remote checks."

Spamassassin is installed, via rpm dependency. This is a new install,
so I don't understand why this seems to work for others but not for
me.

Does anyone know of a way to check a log to see if Spamassassin is
actually getting run. In my experience running Spamassassin on
servers, Spamassassin adds headers to emails it checks; I don't see
any added headers to my emails.

Shouldn't this be a simple install and run type of use case scenario?

Thanks for the ideas so far.
