I use spamassassin with great success. I combined it with procmail and every mail with a spam hit of over 10 is being deleted without ever hitting my mail program. Spam with lower hitcount will be tagged and filtered into a seperate folder. I looked at my logfiiles and managed to figure out, that now I get 2 Spam mails per day instead of 70. from the filtered "68" spam mails I have to review 5 or six manually. All the others never get through to my eyes. But I have to say that I put the 2 spam mails per day which are not detected into spamassassins sa-learn tool to train my bayes filter with them. So your milage may vary. Greets, Daniel Am Mittwoch, 27. August 2003 17:55 schrieb Malcolm Candlish:
Dear List Members,
Having lost a lot of important business mail, I am enquiring as to whether members have found a successful way of dealing with 'junk'. Could it be that 'Evolution' is being selective and not including some mail, or has my enthusiasm for deletion got the better of me!
Very fortunately I also have Mutt on board and that which was lost, was collected.
Has anyone tryed Spamassasin or other utility for selecting out junk and more importantly does it work.
Thank you for your time.
