          is a [Mail::SpamAssassin::Message](https://www.chedong.com/phpMan.php/perldoc/Mail%3A%3ASpamAssassin%3A%3AMessage/markdown)

SYNOPSIS
        # WARNING: requires OLD SpamAssassion 2.x, not the new 3.x
        # See [Mail::Box::Search::SpamAssassin](https://www.chedong.com/phpMan.php/perldoc/Mail%3A%3ABox%3A%3ASearch%3A%3ASpamAssassin/markdown) for the preferred interface
        # However, it is possible to do:

        my $msg    = ...;   # some [Mail::Message](https://www.chedong.com/phpMan.php/perldoc/Mail%3A%3AMessage/markdown) object
        my $sa     = [Mail::Message::Wrapper::SpamAssassin](https://www.chedong.com/phpMan.php/perldoc/Mail%3A%3AMessage%3A%3AWrapper%3A%3ASpamAssassin/markdown)->new($msg);
        my $spam   = [Mail::SpamAssassin](https://www.chedong.com/phpMan.php/perldoc/Mail%3A%3ASpamAssassin/markdown)->new;
        my $status = $spam->check($sa);

        $msg->label(spam => 1) if $status->is_spam;
        $status->rewrite_mail;  # Adds spam lines to header

DESCRIPTION
       WARNING: This module only works with the old version of SpamAssassin:
       version 2.x.  The newer 3.x releases have changed the way that messages
       are kept. Please contribute improved code.

       The "[Mail::Message::Wrapper::SpamAssassin](https://www.chedong.com/phpMan.php/perldoc/Mail%3A%3AMessage%3A%3AWrapper%3A%3ASpamAssassin/markdown)" class --sorry for the long
       package name-- is a wrapper around [Mail::SpamAssassin::Message](https://www.chedong.com/phpMan.php/perldoc/Mail%3A%3ASpamAssassin%3A%3AMessage/markdown), which
       is an interface to the spam checking software of [Mail::SpamAssassin](https://www.chedong.com/phpMan.php/perldoc/Mail%3A%3ASpamAssassin/markdown).

METHODS
       [Mail::Message::Wrapper::SpamAssassin](https://www.chedong.com/phpMan.php/perldoc/Mail%3A%3AMessage%3A%3AWrapper%3A%3ASpamAssassin/markdown)->new($message, %options)
           Creates a wrapper around the $message.  The already present fields
           from a previous run of [Spam::Assassin](https://www.chedong.com/phpMan.php/perldoc/Spam%3A%3AAssassin/markdown) (or probably fake lines) are
           removed first.
