Hi, I inherited a James instance that had been quietly doing it's thing for some time, and I'd meant to getting around to understanding it better one day, and it seems that day has come a little earlier than I expected.

I got caught by the relays.ordb.org issue, and now I have a huge amount of incorrectly tagged mail in my spam folder.

I would use the FromRepository Mailet, but I'm afraid my version of James is 2.2, and FromRepository seems to my understanding to be a 2.3+ feature. Upgrading is not currently an option for us, due to custom mailets that failed in tests against newer James versions.

We tried moving the contents of the spam folder into the spool for reprocessing, but as they already had spam flags set, they all went back to the spam folder.

The options we've come up with:

Add a DB spam repository, reprocess everything and then change the spam flag via crafty SQLing and reprocess.

Write a script to open each message and resend it, starting it fresh in the 
James processes.

Ask the James mailing list to see if someone more familiar with James might have a better solution, or comments on our two main ideas.

I'm happy to give more information, but I don't really know what would be relevant at this point.

m.
