They need manual training to the same extent that Bayes needs it. > These are fairly difficult to install Bogofilter is pretty easy to use without a plugin. Typically it's just a matter of piping your mail through bogofilter -e -p In general the most efficient way to score-in an external filter is to run it separately and have SA score the result - by scoring headers or otherwise. The reason for using the Bogofilter plugin is that it plumbs Bogofilter into SA autotraining. Personally I'd only rely on that as a last resort. > but provide a good complement to BAYES scoring One thing that can make bogofilter more complementary is to configure it for multi-word tokenization. It makes it good with spam that has spammy language, but few spammy words, which Bayes can struggle with. This is also the kind of spam on which most custom body rules are targeted.
