On a related topic,
anybody ever got the mozilla spamfilter to do some actual filtering? I hear it's great but it doesn't do anything for me.
I haven't. Part of my problem is that I don't get enough spam[that gets past spamassassin] to train it on. I think the trick is for the ham and spam to be the same order of magnitude. I used my entire Inbox as ham and now Mozilla never tags anything as spam.
You don't save spamassassin's output? You've never got a false positive? Well, I guess you wouldn't know anyway :-)
Spamassassin's output is redirected via procmail to stay on the mail server. I then check it once a week and flush it. It would be non-trivial and consume bandwidth[defeating the purpose of filtering the spam] to download it somewhere where mozilla can see it. And no, I've never gotten a false positive that I care about. But I am not really complaining, I am perfectly happy with the current state of my spam filtering. :)
