In fact it *does* have an effect. When I leave the summary page after marking something as spam or ham I get a message "applying spam rules", and the messages marked as spam are moved, or at least are not displayed to me when I enter that group again. Where is the spam being "moved" to, if anywhere, and if I train bogofilter in this way will my current setup start to detect spam and move it to the same place before I even see it? Obviously, this is how I'd like it work, and I also want to check for false positives once it does. Thanks, Jim > A really simple HOWTO would > be much appreciated.
