Hi folks:
I always utilized Spamassassin for filtering spam messages in Evolution,
but lately it is not working effectively. It happens in my POP3 account
for my institution email. I have to mark always the same messages as
junk, which is frustrating. Some spam mails get filtered, but others
don't, they always appear as not junk, even though I mark them as junk.
Does this happens to anyone else? Any help is appreciated.
All the best,
Germán.
Do you have a user_prefs filer in the .spamassassin directory in your
home directory. That is needed to control the actions of spamassassin.
Look to the spamassassin documentation to see how that works if you
don't. On my machine spamassassin is wonderfully effective.
Yes, I have that file, but I never modified it, so I think it should
work. Or do I have to modify it to really work?
Germán.
It should work but there are things you can modify in the file to
improve its performance. I see you are thinking to switch to Bogofilter.
I have always used spamassassin on a non-server and it works well for
me. But maybe in your environment Bogofillter will work better
One more thing. You have evolution-spamassassin installed and have
configured evolution to use spamassassin?
Yes, I have configured evo to use spamassassin, I always used it and worked well, but as I said before, in the last months it is not working as before. Now I have switched to bogofilter and it seems to be faster and it's working well... let's see what happens in a near future :)
All the best,
