+How to tune spam filtering
+==========================
+
+SNM comes with the `rspamd spam filtering system <https://rspamd.com/>`_
+enabled by default. Although its out-of-the-box performance is good, you
+can increase its efficiency by tuning its behaviour.
+
+A) Auto-learning
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+Moving spam email to the Junk folder (and false-positives out of it) will
+trigger an automatic training of the Bayesian filters, improving filtering
+of future emails.
+
+B) Train from existing folders
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+If you kept previous spam, you can train the filter from it. Note that the
+`rspamd FAQ <https://rspamd.com/doc/faq.html#how-can-i-learn-messages>`_
+indicates that *you should always learn both classes with almost equal
+amount of messages to increase performance of the statistical engine.*
+
+You can run the training in a root shell as follows:
+
+.. code:: bash
+
+  # Path to the controller socket
+  export RSOCK="/var/run/rspamd/worker-controller.sock"
+
+  # Learn the Junk folder as spam
+  rspamc -h $RSOCK learn_spam /var/vmail/$DOMAIN/$USER/.Junk/cur/
+
+  # Learn the INBOX as ham
+  rspamc -h $RSOCK learn_ham /var/vmail/$DOMAIN/$USER/cur/
+
+  # Check that training was successful
+  rspamc -h $RSOCK stat | grep learned
+
+C) Tune symbol weight
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+The ``X-Spamd-Result`` header is automatically added to your emails, detailing
+the scoring decisions. The `modules documentation <https://rspamd.com/doc/modules/>`_
+details the meaning of each symbol. You can tune the weight if a symbol if needed.
+
+.. code:: nix
+
+  services.rspamd.locals = {
+    "groups.conf".text = ''
+      symbols {
+        "FORGED_RECIPIENTS" { weight = 0; }
+      }'';
+  };
+
+D) Tune action thresholds
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+After scoring the message, rspamd decides on an action based on configurable thresholds.
+By default, rspamd will tell postfix to reject any message with a score higher than 15.
+If you experience issues in scoring or want to stay on the safe side, you can disable
+this behaviour by tuning the configuration. For example:
+
+.. code:: nix
+
+  services.rspamd.extraConfig = ''
+    actions {
+      reject = null; # Disable rejects, default is 15
+      add_header = 6; # Add header when reaching this score
+      greylist = 4; # Apply greylisting when reaching this score
+    }
+  '';
+
+
+E) Access the rspamd web UI
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+Rspamd comes with `a web interface <https://rspamd.com/webui/>`_ that displays statistics
+and history of past scans. **We do NOT recommend using it to change the configuration**
+as doing so will override values from the configuration set in the previous sections.
+
+The UI is served on the ``/var/run/rspamd/worker-controller.sock`` Unix socket. Here are
+two ways to access it from your browser.
+
+With ssh forwarding
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+For occasional access, the simplest way is to forward the socket to localhost and open
+http://localhost:3333 in your browser.
+
+.. code:: shell
+
+  ssh -L 3333:/run/rspamd/worker-controller.sock $HOSTNAME
+
+With an nginx reverse-proxy
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+If you have a secured nginx reverse proxy set on the host, you can use it to expose the socket.
+**Keep in mind the UI is unsecured by default, you need to setup an authentication scheme**, for
+exemple with `basic auth <https://docs.nginx.com/nginx/admin-guide/security-controls/configuring-http-basic-authentication/>`_:
+
+.. code:: nix
+
+  services.nginx.virtualHosts.rspamd = {
+    forceSSL = true;
+    enableACME = true;
+    basicAuthFile = "/basic/auth/hashes/file";
+    serverName = "rspamd.example.com";
+    locations = {
+      "/" = {
+        proxyPass = "http://unix:/run/rspamd/worker-controller.sock:/";
+      };
+    };
+  };
