I've been using bayes with 2.55 for a while now.  Initially it was quite
good, but FP's did go up.  Since then, with all of the...ah..wordy..spam
that's cropped it, the bayes filters have become much less effective.

I probably need to upgrade to 2.61, and rebuild my bayes database from
another corpus, but time hasn't been available for spam filtering, lately.

It would probably be fairly straight forward to have it check the score of
the spam and spambox if it's over a certian threshold beyond the SA
threshold.  The threshold could even possibly be an environment variable
set in tcp.smtpd or such.

It'd also be fairly easy to have it deliver to two different spamboxes
based on these split scores, too...or just deliver the lower score to the
user for filtering.

I could probably make this work, but the time factor gets the way at the
moment....I'm flying to Atlanta in a few hours, for a few days, to install
the latest project.  Hopefully after that I'll start getting caught up on
the normal daily work, then eventually work back to having some free time.

If you can get the user filters set up, you might be able to simply have
them filter X-Spam-Level: header (or even X-Spam-Status: hits..),
perhaps....depends on the user's mail client, I suppose, though.


It might be nice to see two levels in SA eventually, though it's probably
already been brought up on the SA lists.  X-Spam-Status: Yes,
X-Spam-Status: No, X-Spam-Status: Definitely or something. :)
