I've recently installed the Spamassassin filter for Kmail. It sure removes some spam, but not nearly enough. Typycally it will remove approximately 75 out of 175 spam messages, leaving 100 left for me to sift through.
I've let it learn what is spam for a week or so now, with absolutely no impact on the ratio. Obviously, I wonder if I register spam in vain, did I forget something, do I have to few messages (don't know how to see the numbers, but I guess I have 1-2.000 spam messages registered), or is it not that efficient to have identified spam as I thought?
spamassassin can do a good job as part of a multi layered spam defense.
Spamassassin can do an EXCELLENT job as the ONLY layer in a spam defense EVEN on a pop-3 client such as Kmail. Sanity check and grey listing at an smtp gateway (beyond the control of the pop-3 user) are largely redundant, as virtually none of this traffic passes a well tuned Spamassassin setup. -- ----------JSA--------- -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
