has some scripts which help you use popfile with procmail.


Thanks will take a look


An early version of the FAQ includes the following snippet for manually
training popfile:

I have gotten the program to work nicely and am now involved helping them
with their documentation, specially the *nix side.

One point worth noting is that popfile is better to train it on errors
only. You get better results this way than to feeding it many emails using
the insert.pl.

Anyone looking for a way to cut on spam, you can give this program a
try..http://sourceforge.net/projects/popfile/

Yes, I'm currently using this on my FreeBSD box checking mail from a Windows
Outlook Express machine, and all is working fine.

Didn't take long to set up, and very quickly got accurate. I'm on many
mailing lists, and receive far too many emails a day, a few 100 atleast.

So far after using popFile for about 2 months I have a 99.29% accuracy.

I do check my spam folder occasionally to make sure what is spam is actually
spam, but I rarely find a misplaced email.

 Found this program which seems like may help controlling spam
 http://popfile.sourceforge.net/

 However I am wondering if anyone has got it working in FreeBSD that could
 share some tips. Looking at the archives from the forums of the project
 seems that there are some FreeBSD users currently using it.

Where you able to get it running as a regular user and not as root?
