Subject: Error/spam corpus correction command. All: I have users who frequently submit mail already marked as spam to the spam report email interface. Until now I haven¹t worried too much about it. Over time it has caused the spam error reports to out weigh the notspam error reports. The numbers were something like 2500+ in /usr/local/assp/errors/spam and 450 in notspam. This caused the rebuild norm to exceed 1.5. I added the following command to my rebuild script which parses all those emails for the subject that I tag them with, then deletes them. This make sure error reports of spam missed are ONLY items that were really missed. Here is the command for anyone who wants it and runs unix or linux. cd /usr/local/assp/errors/spam grep -l -Z "Subject: \[SPAM\]" ./* | xargs -0 rm Where "Subject: \[SPAM\]" matches any email that starts with the subject ³Subject: [SPAM]². Obviously you¹ll need to adjust to match whatever you use in your subject line. If you don¹t use anything, * shrug *.. Not sure what to tell ya! Maybe you¹re lucky enough to have end users who actually pay attention to the emails that state how the spam filter actually works. Hope this helps. -Paul Paul K.
