I would like spamassassin integration with mailman because, there are some messages that tend to be tagged as spam and in fact are not. Messages that are scored between about 4 and 10 should be moderated by the list administrators. Ideally the moderation range should be configurable per-list. The current implementation is systemwide, but that works well enough for me. I don't use bayes-filters per list, but use one bayes filter for all messages processed by mailman (most of my lists are low traffic, so I assume bayes filtering doesn't do very much in that case). The SpamAssassin filter at http://gewis.nl/~pieterb/python/SpamAssassin.py.txt handles both cases of integration and I wonder what's needed to get something like this in the default mailman's distribution. The things that should be done: - make it i18n-aware (i haven't looked into that yet) - improve documentation / faq entry - ... (anything else?)
