Re: Filtering spam in national language

[Justin Mason]

 I work in an italian company, we are receiving some spam written in (very
 bad) italian language, obviously produced by some automatic translator.
 Although their content is heavily pornographic, the spam score is very low,
 because they don't match any of the porn-specific rules, which are designed
 only for english language.
 Does anybody know how can we extend the basic rules to add support for
 italian language pornografic spam?

There are a number of language-specific rulesets on
http://wiki.apache.org/spamassassin/CustomRulesets , such as the
http://www.ccert.edu.cn/spam/sa/Chinese_rules.cf ruleset, written to
catch spam written in Chinese.  I would suggest that this is the
best approach -- maintain your own ruleset to catch them...
writing SpamAssassin rules is quite easy ;)

Find an Italian who wants to work with say the SARE ninjas for some
Italian specific rule versions, perhaps?
