I’ve got a mailserver running that fetches mails from different accounts via fetchmail, scans them for viruses using clamav, filters for SPAM using spamassassin and then deliveres it to the mailbox and sorts them via procmail. Now Spamassassin just filtered arround 35-40% of all SPAM I recieved. My local.cf includes
use_bayes 1
bayes_auto_learn 1
bayes_auto_lern_threshold_nonspam 1
bayes_auto_lern_threshold_spam 14.00
bayes_ignore_header X-Spam-Flag
bayes_ignore_header X-Spam-Status
In order to recognize more SPAM i created a folder SPAM in my Mailbox and moved all SPAM I recieved into it. Now simply change to that folder and run a sa-learn –spam –progress * there, as well as a sa-learn –ham –progress * in your inbox and voila… SPAM-recognition by spamassassin starts improoving very fast :-)
(Thanks Diederik for the hint)
Hello, Prego.
What’s the best guide for setting up something like you’re referring to here?
Hi Kim,
I think I only used information from http://forums.gentoo.org and http://www.gentoo-wiki.com. More from the wiki iirc. If I find time I’ll write a small howto possibly if more people are interested in it. Anyway feel free to contact me if you fall into trouble. Mail is prego AT pregos DOT info.
HTH, prego
