Reading the instructions for the spamassassin-bultin bayesian filtering, it seems it's not so straightforward. As usual, the sure-fire spam killer doesn't exist. How involved is "you teach it"? (Rhetorical question, I'm not prepared to depend on some huge bloatware for mail filtering so won't use it anyway.) > I got >120 spams over the weekend. It caught every one. No false +ves > and no false -ves. Hm. Despite what people rave about, even after tweaking (increase html scores, add those patterns, rbl lookups, etc) I only reach a 95-98% hit rate with SA. No false +, but spam specifically crafted to slip through SA only scores about 2.5 (I've seen several of them now).
