Thanks for your bug report. First of all, Dapper's evolution does have the
bogofilter plugin - you might have to enable it. For the rest of the bug
report: it's true that a package's recommends are not installed by default and
it can be a bit problematic, although on the other hand having to
The problem is not that I went to apt/aptitude and installed Evolution and
neglected to install a package it recommended me, Evolution was already
installed, I never seen the recomendation; that is dangerous.
Anyway, if Dapper's Evolution can work with Bogofilter and:
- You install Evolution
I don't think we can decide this over the heads of people, some might prefer
spamassassin, or use server-side filtering, bogofilter is not installed by

That's an issue known since warty but not easy to fix. Especially that the
bogofilter plugin is a distribution patch and conflicts with the spamassassin
one. We should not break upgrades so forcing bogofilter by default is not an
option. Note that bogofilter needs to be ham trained too and
Then the only possible solution I can think of is to take out bogofilter and
include spamassassin, one uselles program for a useful one.
