1)

The digit represent days not hours - no way to change this.
You may write your own "post filter" in 'lib/BlockReport/modify.pm'.

2)

If a block report is requested (per mail) for a specific address or group 
of addresses, the report will show that there is no mail blocked (if so).
Scheduled block reports will skip an address, if no blocked mail is found.
The BR-filter works as "just in time filter" not as a "post filter" - the 
complete lines in the maillog.txt (bmaillog.txt) are ignored.

3)

block report shows blocked mails (as the name supposes). If HMM/Bayesian 
are set to test mode, the mails will be delivered to the users. They 
should classify them and report them if required.
The default setup is to use the short 'bmaillog.txt' for the block reports 
to speedup processing. Lines for test mode mails are not stored there.

Betreff:        [Assp-test] Block Reports and filtering



Hi,

Further to my emails on the user list regarding trying to get our 
HMM/Bayes working better I have turned on blocking and am doing my best 
to keep on top of reclassifying mistakes.

As a result I've got a block report coming to me every 4 hours of 
everything that has been blocked which leads me to 3 issues.

1) Although the frequency is set to 4 hours there is no way I can set it 
to only report on last then 1 day - it appears fractions are ignored in 
the report request. Would it be possible to have the report request 
process the first digit after the decimal? At least then I'd be able to 
generate reports an specify it in 2.4 hour blocks rather than 24 hour 
blocks.

2) I've filtered out none bayes/hmm blocks. When an email address has a 
blocked message, the header for that email address is included in the 
report even when all of the emails have been filtered from the display 
and it says "found no blocked messages". Would it be possible to have 
the header for each email address included only if there are blocked 
messages to be displayed on the report?

3) Finally, I have two particular customers who were being affected 
badly by HMM/Bayes blocks so I have had to set them as test mode for 
HMM/Bayes. Unfortunately this means that they don't appear on the block 
report so I can't correct the mistakes. I would like to suggest that if 
anything is set on test mode such as this there needs to be an admin 
report so that work can be done to get them off test mode. This could be 
as simple as including them on the block report with something to 
identify them as test mode. Leaving as is will be training the database 
the wrong way and my only options are to grep the mail logs or trawl 
through the spam corpus looking for anything out of place.

All the best,

Colin Waring.
