-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I am a happy Spambayes user for years, and I always see the same pattern: the system works worderfully, and you keep training it with the false positives/negatives. So good so far.
After a while the detection rate goes worse, slowly. And training get slower (the probability change after a training cycle moves far slower). My usual approach would to delete the database and retrain again. But this implies a period (a week or two) of mediocre results, even training with "recent" spam. I was thinking about something like going over the database and reduce all counters to 50%, instead of simply starting fresh over. What do you do?. I am using 1.1a4, a bit modded (custom database, etc), should I upgrade to 1.1a6?. I am using SB as a library in my own personal antispam project, not acting as a proxy. PS: My spam threhold is 90%. Maybe i should move it down?. In fact my ranges are ham <20%, 20%<unsure<90%, spam>90%. Are they reasonable?.
