If anyone's interested.. sure. It's a matcher that uses Classifier4J to classify email subject and body content as spam/ham... it's really pretty simple. But you'd have to figure out a way to classify the emails (unless you want my whole app that does it). I wrote a web based app that uses the James JDBC stores to handle email. It uses James with Fetchmail to pull messages.. then applies a filter that tests with a bayesian classifier (Classifier4J) and moves it to an alternate local address if its matched. The web app allows you to mark messages as spam and remove messages that were shown as being spam (anything above a .9 bayes match gets junked). Also does the normal email stuff.. reading, composing, deleting, etc. From there all you have to do is fire up a POP3 client.. point it at the machine running the app.. and all the emails get pulled.. spam free (if you do a good job at marking spam). > > But I can't expect my end users to be savvy enough to be able to > > download James and configure it themself. > > Well, you could preconfigure it and have them download your distribution. > You might also talk with Stephen McConnell about how Merlin might fit your > needs, once future versions of James are able to run on it. Yeah I was thinking of just bundling James with an "email-enabled" version of my app.. a little larger but includes James with Fetchmail to act as a pop3 proxy that can do a little spam matching. I could probably just write a web based module to manipulate the James config files to add/remove/change pop3 information in the conf files.
