The United States Congress passed the 19th Amendment granting women the right to vote in 1920. But 50 years before that, Louisa Ann Swain, a grandmother in Laramie, Wyoming, cast her ballot on the way to the bakery to buy yeast. The BBC explains who she was, how that happened, and why Swain wasn't actually the first female voter in the U.S.

Today's #Linux mystery: My VPS "comes with" spamassassin, and something claiming to be spamassassin is definitely adding spamassassin headers to my incoming email. But I cannot for the life of me find any spamassassin software on this VPS. Nothing named spamassassin, or sa-learn, or spamc.
I can do all the basic config stuff through #WHM / #cPanel, but my email system integrates calls to spamassassin to train it as to what constitutes ham. I can't find anything to call.
Well, I figured out how to get email to deliver to a conventional mail spool in a #WHM/ #cPanel VPS, using #procmail. Requires root.
install procmail, duh.
at the command line, "touch /etc/procmailrc"
see below
in cPanel, under "Global Email Filters", create a filter, name it whatever you like (e.g. "hand off to procmail"), use rule "has not been previously delivered", use action "pipe to a program" set to "/usr/bin/procmail -Y /etc/procmailrc". Save.
