I don't believe it's retraining at delivery time. The retraining happens every evening via a cron job that checks for false positives and false negatives in users' Junk NotJunk mail folders. Not the most ideal way I realize, but I've been setting up the mailserver in baby steps and this has been working. Is it possible that dspam is getting confused by the sender address? <spam-l-boun...@spam-l.com> ? > Is the "dspam-lmtp" filter that delivers via /tmp/dspam.sock > definitely only classifying messages, or could it be retraining > them? Here's the dspam-lmtp filter line: /./ FILTER dspam-lmtp:unix:/var/run/dspam.sock > If your dspamd was compiled with debug mode enabled you might also > try running it with debugging enabled while you pass it a message > from spam-l, to see what configuration it's picking up via LMTP. Good idea, I'll give it a shot.
