Hi,
Spamassassin seems to think spam is nice. Even when I say, "no this is
spam, stop being silly".
I'm using evolution and have the rule
if spamd returns greater than 0 then move to folder Inbox/Rubbish (for
some reason, I can't select Junk!)
Spamd is the background daemon process, so I wanted to clarify what you
meant by spamd returning 0. Do you mean that the spamassassin score for
a given message is greater than 0? If so, you may want to re-think
that. Spamassassin gives messages points based on various things. The
default OOTB minimum score for spam is 5.0. Without tweaking any of the
Spamassassin defaults, you probably really don't want to consider
anything below 5.0 as spam.
If I understand it correctly evilution is an MTA that uses SpamAssassin
to filter email at read time.
Just off hand I can't think of a more stupid way to use SpamAssassin
except maybe webmail. It'd be a tossup for how long you sit around
waiting for email to appear on the screen so you can read it.
Filter in your MDA. Then the MUA can simply work off the SpamAssassin
markup that is already present when it feeds messages off to individual
folders/sort bins/mailboxes/whatever.
{o.o} I may be crazy enough to use OE. I'm NOT crazy enough to try
to filter emails as they are read into an MUA. Life's too
darned short for that.
