hi,

I am using evolution with spamassassin. I have doe a lot training -
several hundred mails, but spamassassin is yet to catch even a single
mail as spam. I cannot figure out if it is working or not. Any one has
some tips here?

If you look at the headers(*), you'll see a X-spam-score. Check the average scores for what you consider as spam and mention that in your spamassassin config (ref: config option - required_score)

Also, you might want to modify the default behavior of spamassassin of just setting this header to also modifying the subject line to reflect the spam status

(ref: config option - rewrite_header, for example:

rewrite_header Subject [SPAM]

)

A quick google also showed me this, which might be useful:

(*) I am sorry don't know how to do that in evolution, but in thunderbird it is 'view->headers->all' or through 'view->message source', I'd imagine there'd be something similar in evo.
