Stay with Bogo filter. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bogofilter https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apache_SpamAssassin Broadly speaking Blackhole Lists used by SpamAssasin are probably useful for servers, your ISP anyway might use one, but they could be a PITA, too, since they tend to false positives. Bogofilter does learn from the user, it learns very fast and does not tend to false positives. The only pitfall of Bogofilter is, that it's helpless against attacks, e.g. if thousands of brand new spam mails are received within a second. In such a case SpamAssasin probably could be an advantage, but only when used on the server, since when using it by the mail client, the POP messages either way are downloaded, before they get filtered. I only experienced such an attack once in my live. Usually such attacks are already filtered by the ISP, even if we turn of the ISP's filtering for our accounts. _______________________________________________ evolution-list mailing list evolution-list@gnome.org To change your list options or unsubscribe, visit ... https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list
