Re: [Spambayes] How to mark messages as 'Precedence: bulk' or'Precedence: list'

Oops. Fools rush in...   I don't use the proxy, and that's a feature I haven't seen discussed before, so you know more about the subject than I do. After digging around a bit, it appears to me that the "Precedence" header may be set by the message sender. It seems to be non-standard and discouraged by RFC 2076 (http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc2076.html), though, so I don't know how reliable it is.   Anyone who actually knows something about the subject should feel free to speak up now.

If you subscribe to a high-volume mailing list then your 'Review messages' page can be overwhelmed with list messages, making training a pain. Once you've trained Spambayes on enough list traffic, you can use this option to prevent that traffic showing up in 'Review messages'.   From: Jesse Pelton [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, July 07, 2005 11:50 AM To: Hall, Richard B; spambayes@python.org Subject: RE: [Spambayes] How to mark messages as 'Precedence: bulk' or'Precedence: list'   You don't. SpamBayes performs a statistical comparison of the contents of each message to the ham and spam messages that you have previously trained on. Once it's sufficiently trained (which generally happens quickly) it will be quite good at classifying messages. How you train SpamBayes depends on which version you have; see http://spambayes.sourceforge.net/faq.html#how-do-i-train-spambayes-web-method and the FAQ sections that follow it.   It sounds like you want to do a form of blacklisting and/or whitelisting, which most modern e-mail clients can be configured to do. For more information on why SpamBayes does not do this, see http://spambayes.sourceforge.net/faq.html#why-don-t-you-add-whitelisting-blacklisting-to-spambayes.   From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Hall, Richard B Sent: Thursday, July 07, 2005 11:52 AM To: spambayes@python.org Subject: [Spambayes] How to mark messages as 'Precedence: bulk' or'Precedence: list' How do I mark messages in spambayes as 'Precedence: bulk' or 'Precedence: list'?
