BAYES_99 Picking Ham as Spam
I am getting a about 2% of my mail that is clean HAM marked as spam by
BAYES_99 as being 99-100% spam.
What can I do about it? How does BAYES_99 pick spam? I assume its a baysian
filter....

I have no reason to understand why I had to retrain SA last night, but that
trick seems to have taught it a good lesson.
Thanks for the reminder to try retraining it.

Well you will note that the script says nothing about how
spam and ham gets into the spam and misses spam maildirs.
This depends on the MUA the users use. I use Kmail and can
simply drag spam to the missed spam box it it will do it
correctly. Other user agents hork up the mail when doing
this such that it might not be recognized.
I don't find I have to feed it all the mail on a continuing basis. (Thats what
auto learn is supposed to do). Just the mail it misses, FPos and FNegs.
Why on earth would you want to learn Ads as ham?

Nice script. I would love to try it out, but what I do is run it against my
mailboxes, and sa-learn skips messages it has sent.
How could I modify it to replace my poorly written script?
echo "SpamPile"
sa-learn --spam ~/.Mail/SpamPile/cur/
echo "inbox"
sa-learn --ham ~/.Mail/inbox/cur/
echo "Ads"
sa-learn --ham ~/.Mail/Ads/cur/
echo "VFB'
sa-learn --ham ~/.Mail/VFB/cur/

Rob, you have to feed sa-learn two different bunches of mail.
One known spam and the other known ham. You have to continually
train it with missed spam/ham.
I do this by having users create two separate maildirs in their Mail
directory, one named NotSpam and the other named MissedSpam.
Then I run the following script nightly via cron. I had to hack it
a bit because the original was for mbox, not maildir

sa-learn runs against all my mail at exactly 18:42 everyday. And it never
seems to be getting it right. I ran it against 11,000 ham messages the night
I reinstalled it, but still no help.

You need to save these mails that are falsely called spam
and use sa-learn to teach bays database that they are not
spam. Bayes filters need to be trained before they can
be trusted 100%
man sa-learn has some info about this.

And mind you, 2% of my mail is 6 messages a day.

when i try to start the x window, neither keyboard nor mouse works.
Mandrake is really nice, and i just wanna have a working system with

Dear All
My computer has a dual boot (Mandrake 10 and Windows2000) and I would
like to enlarge Mandrake's partition at the expense of reducing
Windows2000 partition. So, I am here asking for advice about the safest
and the fastest way of doing this operation.
Thanks in advance,
Paul

Yes, it's a bayes filter. You can turn it off, or start again, this time
seeding it with some manual training to give the autolearner some good
ideas to start with.
To disable bayes. see man Mail::SpamAssassin::Conf
To wipe out your bayes DB and start fresh use rm -f
~/.spamassassin/bayes_*. Manualy train using the sa-learn tool. see man
