Hi, I really don't know why that I receive so much spam. I am really tired of it. I don't care what Ellen DeGeneres face looks like, or how much weight Rachael Ray has lost. I don't need pictures of nude, or almost nude, people sent to me. I don't need and won't be using any products sold by GNC after receiving hundreds of emails from them every day. In fact, I have thought about putting in a rule into procmailrc that if an email has GNC in the subject line, then it gets forwarded to a GNC email address. If you can't tell, I am very upset. After working a 10 hour day and then spending another 2 1/2 hours driving, I come home to find thousands of junk emails. I really need to work on a website, or do something productive, but I can't because I have to go through the trash and see if there is a real email. This takes hours. Then I thought that dspam would be a solution, but really all it has done is made the problem worse. At first, it looked like dspam was working, but then I realized that I could not retrain. After doing more research I found where people were saying that you can not retrain with hash and toe, so I switched to tum. I did yet another corpus train, and after a very short time of retraining (less than an hour) dspam was pulling out almost all the spam. I had thought that I had taken back my inbox. Then after 12 hours, dspam crashed and the css was corrupted. So, I tried it again. Same results. Even if I don't retrain, it crashes after about 12 hours. It worked so well, why can't it just work that way all the time? I then moved dspam from procmailrc to master.cf. Well, this stopped the crashing, still retraining doesn't work if I use an ExtLookup even with dspam-retrain-forward.pl. In fact, dspam-retrain-forward.pl crashes the main dspam process. I checked and rechecked to make sure it was working. I could run the extrlookup script just fine from the command line. Things are worse with dspam integrated directly into postfix, because after a short time the system was 0% idle with dspam and postfix using all the cpu. Yet, it uses almost no cpu with dspam in procmail. Dspam seemed to bounce the good emails and deliver the spam. I still don't know what happened to all the emails. I am not sure if the problem was because it was bouncing emails, or if they were being deferred. Many, many deferred emails. So, I put it back into procmailrc. I also added to my procmailrc some rules so the more nasty emails get deleted. Still, it is far from being effective. There has been may times that I thought that I had dspam working. I just want all the spam to go away. Is there any hope of making dspam work on my mail server?
