That ought to have worked. Did it fail to run/update, or keep updating the ~mail/.hammiedb file? > Ah, I see. The problem is that my users will be forwarding the > messages. Ugh. Can you trust them enough to forward them in a fairly pristine manner? If the forwarded messages can be in any format, then you might end up with some quite odd effects. > We also use IMAP here exclusively so the POP3 proxy > won't help me anyway. Are you wanting to train individual databases for each user, or one global one? If the latter, can you make a write-only IMAP mailbox that's accessible to everyone? If so you could use sb_imapfilter to do the training. If the former, you could probably still do this with sb_imapfilter. =Tony.Meyer -- Please always include the list ([email protected]) in your replies (reply-all), and please don't send me personal mail about SpamBayes. http://www.massey.ac.nz/~tameyer/writing/reply_all.html explains this. _______________________________________________ [email protected] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/spambayes Check the FAQ before asking: http://spambayes.sf.net/faq.html
