Hi Reid,
Thanks for the link concerning the way to get a tri-state status:
* spam
* ham
* unsure
I'm testing this after having proceed to the following:
* Using a terminal, I've opened the file bogofilter.cf (in ubuntu it is
located in /etc/). Then I've saved it with a new name, puting a .old inside the
name, ( bogofilter.old.cf ) in order to keep an original copy on my disk. Close
it. Then reopen bogofilter.cf and modify/save it, according to advices written
in this file - ie: uncomment lines in paragraphs CUTOFF_VALUES,
SPAM_SUBJECT_TAG, and add rules as explained.
I will post back after having receive enough messages and get experience.
Thanks again
Antoine

What is Unsure mode?
Bogofilter's default configuration will classify a message as spam or
non-spam. The SPAM_CUTOFF parameter is used for this. Messages with
scores greater than or equal to SPAM_CUTOFF are classified as spam.
Other messages are classified as ham.
There is also a HAM_CUTOFF parameter. When used, messages must have
scores less than or equal to HAM_CUTOFF to be classified as ham.
Messages with scores between HAM_CUTOFF and SPAM_CUTOFF are classified
as unsure. If you look in bogofilter.cf, you will see the following
lines:
#### CUTOFF Values
#
# both ham_cutoff and spam_cutoff are allowed.
# setting ham_cutoff to a non-zero value will
# enable tri-state results (Spam/Ham/Unsure).
#
#ham_cutoff = 0.45
#spam_cutoff = 0.99
#
# for two-state classification:
#
## ham_cutoff = 0.00
## spam_cutoff= 0.99
To turn on Yes/No/Unsure classification, remove the #'s from the last
two lines.
Alternatively, if you'd rather use labels Yes/No/Unsure instead of
Spam/Ham/Unsure, remove the #'s from the following bogofilter.cf line:
## spamicity_tags = Yes, No, Unsure
Once that's done, you may want to set the filtering rules for your mail
program to include rules like:
if header contains "X-Bogosity: Spam", put in Spam folder
if header contains "X-Bogosity: Unsure", put in Unsure folder
Alternatively, bogofilter.cf has directives for modifying the Subject:
line, i.e.
#### SPAM_SUBJECT_TAG
#
# tag added to "Subject: " line for identifying spam or unsure
# default is to add nothing.
#
##spam_subject_tag=***SPAM***
##unsure_subject_tag=???UNSURE???
With these subject tags, the filtering rules would look like:
if subject contains "***SPAM***", put in Spam folder
if subject contains "???UNSURE???", put in Unsure folder_______________________________________________
