Been reading up a bit on the whole SpamAssassin and sa-learn
functionality.
Now, mind you, QmailToaster may already be doing this (or, will be,.
once Nick fixes the SA issue that's pending), but here's how I
understand it.
In order for SA to learn with the sa-learn command, it requires to
run it regularly against a mailbox designated for and holding spam.
something like "sa-learn –spam –mbox Junk".
Now, QT creates a 'spam' folder on all accounts, where SA deposits
spam. Would it be possible to have an automated task that scans the
'spam' folder once every 24 hours (or, when content changes,
automatically), so as to further increase the ease with which SA can
be trained?
In other words, all the user needs to do is toss received spam into
the 'spam' folder, and the system will do the rest by scanning the
folder, and further tuning SA's awareness.
Obviously, I don't know how easy or hard this would be to add, but it
certainly would make dealing with spam easier.
Already a script for it. Head over to my site (http://jakev.com/qmail)
and you'll see the spam links. Someone (I forget who, sorry!) sent me
the script he uses. If it seems a little daunting at first, send me an
email off-list and I'll send you a copy of the one I rewrote for myself
(in English) that you can use. Requires users to put spam into the
folder Spam (same as QT), and then reads those emails, as well as their
regular email box so it can weigh it against legitimate emails.
