general question spam filters
Hey there,
This is a general question, not really an implementation detail.
But I thought I would ask, might save me many hours researching.
Is there a way for apache james to use some sort of global spam filter?
One that doesn't require any interaction from the user?
I'm wondering if there is some sort of existing global spam database already in existence, which I could use to create a probability for spam.
I'm wondering what I would need to do to integrate this in to James.
Another option would be for users to mark mail as spam.
But then I would need to keep a database of all these individualized markings, which I'm trying to avoid.

Hi Tim,
I began to document spam configuration on
http://james.apache.org/server/3/config-antispam.html
So, for now, you have the failfast hooks, the spamassassin mailet.
BayasianMailet is availalbe (I used it some time ago with james 2.3),
but I didn't test it anymore on james 3, and yes, there is interactin
needed from the user (he has to send back mail to spam or ham user
account to train the corpus).
There is a a ai-mailet project where aimed to be the place to further
code the spam stuff
http://james.apache.org/mailet/ai/
We had a gsoc proposal last year for work on spam, but it didn't happen.
So it's an work in progress where much has still to be done.
