Does spam get delivered to your > dedicated spam maildir? If so, wouldn't that qualify for "working > properly"? Thanks for your response. I think my problem lies with sa-learn, not with SpamAssassin itself. Some email is sent to my spam folder ~/Maildir/.Spam . But I also send email that gets through but which I don't want to the same folder, and I see no evidence that sa-learn learns anything from this. The two sources of email in the .Spam folder are roughly equal in number. > Those headers also can be used to verify SA being > called without waiting for spam, since they are added to ham, too.

Incidentally, am I alone if thinking the ezmlm program used by this mailing list is manifestly inferior to mailman? Eg it does not seem possible to reply on the gmane newsgroup as it is with mailman lists. Or have I misunderstood this in some way? -- Timothy Murphy e-mail: gayleard /at/ eircom.net School of Mathematics, Trinity College, Dublin 2, Ireland
