Online SpamAssassin evaluation / RFC conformant check [closed]

I want to check the SpamAssassin SPAM score of E-Mails including headers generated by a script from a WebApp.

Therefore I need to run this mail through SpamAssassin to get the specific SPAM headers like:

Yes, score=6.032 
HTML_IMAGE_ONLY_24=1.282 
HTML_MESSAGE=0.001 
HTML_MIME_NO_HTML_TAG=0.635 
MIME_HEADER_CTYPE_ONLY=1.996 
MIME_HTML_ONLY=1.105
RP_MATCHES_RCVD=-0.001 
SPF_PASS=-0.001 
SUBJECT_NEEDS_ENCODING=0.1
SUBJ_ILLEGAL_CHARS=1.105
T_REMOTE_IMAGE=0.01 

One possibility could be to install SpamAssassin on the server and run it through this installation.

Is there some online service where I can paste/send the mail to and this service gives me the SPAM headers?

Yes, I know that you can configure SpamAssassin with different settings and therefore the SPAM score may vary from installation to installation, but a basic evaluation would help already.

Or is there a possibility to check the RFC conformance of a message? (Because SpamAssassin also evaluates this (eg. MIME_HTML_ONLY which means that you have no plain text content and therefore the mail isn't RFC conformant)).

Thanks!!

What is a good SpamAssassin score?

SpamAssassin works by analyzing an email and giving it a spam score. The lower the score, the better the chances of the email getting delivered successfully. Anything below 5 is considered to be a decent score—above 5 and there is a good chance that the email will be filtered out somewhere before it reaches the inbox.

Where is the SpamAssassin configuration file?

Configuration File Locations The SpamAssassin configuration files live by default in /usr/share/spamassassin and /etc/mail/spamassassin.
