About:
Vipul's Razor is a distributed, collaborative, spam detection and filtering network that exploits the broadcast characteristic of spam distribution to limit its propagation. The primary focus of the system is to identify and disable an email spam before its injection and processing is complete. Razor establishes a distributed and constantly updating catalogue of spam in propagation. This catalogue is used by clients to filter out known spam.

[»] Great!

This software is great! I've been using it for several months now and I would highly recommend it. I'd say it catches about 30-40% of my daily intake of spam.

Yes; I'm using a procmail rule in my exim setup that
adds "[SPAM]" and a X- header to all email that Exim
reports as spam.

An example is provided by the man page razor-check(1):

:0 Wc
| razor-check
:0 Waf
| formail -A "X-Razor2-Warning: SPAM."
