Hi Everyone,
I am thinking about working on Feature Request 000023 - Daily
quarantine summary emails - and I am wondering what kind of
information you would like to see included in the emails?
Subject, From, Date, Spam-Rate, "Show" and a "Don't Quarantine"
link... That is
what Freemailer like GMX do from time to time...
Since I have limited programming experience, this would probably
start out as a cron job, but it would be neat if we could set this
up as a dspam user preference.
I use procmail and logrotate (which runs in a cronjob, too) to do
that job... it rotates my procmail-logfile. The only thing, i miss,
is a "Quarantine" or "Don't Quarantine" link in this setup.

I would like to see the date of the Quarantine Reminder (once per
reminder is fine). A list of emails with Spam Rating, From, and
Subject in table format, and a link to Quarantine. The link would
have to be definable obviously. Including the DSpam logo would be
nice. A definable reminder subject would also be nice.
I wouldn't suggest listing each message in the reminders as some
people fail to purge their quarantine and there could literally be
thousands of emails to list in the reminder email, thus creating a
large email and wasted CPU cycles if you have many users with large
quarantines. I would just list the quarantined messages for that
given day.
Glad to see someone working on the Feature Requests!!

So something like a table listing the date, subject, sender, probability
and status?
Jeff Harris has a good point - what if someone hasn't cleaned their box
and there are 4,000+ messages lying around? Or was your point that it
would be a bad idea to see the text of each message? Either way, I
agree with you (though Zeppelin still sucks).
I think a simple email saying "You have x amount of messages in your
quarantine box, x of which have arrived since yesterday." might
suffice. We just need something to remind users to clean their damn
inboxes!
This gives me something to work with and I'll get started today, as time
permits...
I have a question, though - since I am a noob programmer, I'm sure that
this list is going to criticize my work quite heavily. Would it make
sense to setup a CVS or SVN or whatever for my work, so that these
criticizers can contribute as well?
