I set up a filter in kmail to use spamc to sort out spam mails and its working well - except for the horrible slowdown while spamc does its job.
Hi David! I don't use KMail but I did have this very same problem in my configuration, what changed all that for me was putting my trusted recipients as whitelisted in ./spamassassin/user_prefs like that: whitelist_to *@suse.com whitelist_to *@mutt.org for example. All mailing lists and the trusted addresses you receive the most mail from don't need to be filtered by SpamAssassin, it takes a lot of time to chew.
Thanks for the tip, I'll try it. I was under the impression that by having spamassasin as my last filter (second to last) all of my other filters would have done their jobs so there would only be a few messages left for spamassasin to check. The main problem is that when spamassasin (spamc) goes to work then kmail refuses to refresh its window (and allow me to continue reading mail) until the filter process finishes, perhaps there is a way I can run spamc at a lower priority/higher nice value? thanks again for your idea - -- dh Don't shop at GoogleGear.com! -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.1 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQE/U09KBwgxlylUsJARAkHQAJ9yuaWTKnGvuovqHleWKsf+xUEpbgCePRiw IvsYoVF5V4tuM60OuTabV3U= =1r4P -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
