    According to your statement,  spamassassin-3.4 will NOT be able to
fulfill this job.

    spamassassin current version is release 3.4.6 (Stable).
    Am I right? Where can I find Spam assassin 4?

    I have NOT installed Mail::SpamAssassin::Plugin::ExtractText.
    I could NOT find any RPM for the above package.

        I installed it with the below command.
            yum install poppler-utils

      How to configure spamassassin to use it?
               Is just a file called rule.cf enough?

     I googled it. But could not find a way for spamassassin to use it.

   Please be kind enough to guide me since this is very  useful.

   Hope to hear from you.
