discovery regarding Spambayes and KMail

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I've been running Spambayes since the early days when you had to 
set it up as a proxy server and do a lot of configuration through 
its web interface. A few versions back, Spambayes appeared to 
start to be included in the standard packages of a Fedora-KDE 
install (I could have details wrong here - but, I never manually 
selected it in fresh installs - maybe it's a KMail dependency now 
- I don't know); but, the standard install just sets it up as a 
filter  without setting up the proxy server interface or the access 
to the configuration; long-time Spambayes users know about database 
bloat and decreasing efficacy of the filter, and the standard first 
trick was to simply delete the databases and restart training. The 
database is now down to one, is located at the root of your home 
folder and is called ".hammie.db" - deleting this file will cause 
it to be recreated the next time you run Kontact/Kmail with no 
data - In less than an hour yesterday after only minimally 
training on less than 50 messages, I went from dozens of spam 
messages an hour not being classified as such, down to a very few - 
overnight, my inbox only had about seven spams in it after 10+ 
hours, and that's after a very little training

If you've never configured Spambayes with KMail, it's worth a shot; 
you'll find the anti-spam wizard in the 'Tools' menu
