I did manually train spamassassin during one period when I tried to use it because I was having configuration problems with Spambayes. There was not a dramatic effect - it seemed like I'd classify something as spam, and the same message would keep getting through as ham - I made a mini-attempt to learn about configuring spamassassin, but was in a hurry and didn't readily find answers. Shortly after, I sorted out my Spambayes issue, so I stopped using spamassassin. I've read repeatedly that spamassassin works well, so I chalked up my experience to inexperience, and poor configuration. Someone on this list whose views I respect once said that the best anti-spam strategy was a combination of spamassassin and spambayes. Now, having got my curiosity up, I'm discovering some man pages I didn't find previously, and see that spamassassin has a bayes-ian component to its filtering. Looks like its time to revisit the subject, for me. -- Claude Jones Brunswick, MD, USA -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
