How to configure SpamAssassin on a Plesk server?

Settings will be applied server-wide.

• The maximum number of worker spamd processes to run
  Set the maximum number of worker spamd processes to run. By default, the maximum number of SpamAssassin processes which could be configured via the Plesk GUI is 32. If it is required to run more SpamAssassin processes simultaneously, add the following lines to the panel.ini file:

  spamAssassin.maxChildrenLimit = 80

• The score that a message must receive to qualify as spam
  A message is considered to be a source of spam if the number of hits exceeds the established threshold. By default, the filter sensitivity is set so that all messages that score 7 or more points are classified as spam.
  If users still receive spam messages with the default score, to increase sensitivity, set a less value, for example, 6.
  If SpamAssassin marks valid messages as spam, decrease the sensitivity by setting a higher value, for example, 8.
