Bug ID: 7907
Summary: Meta tests should be devolved to determine whether
they apply to the header, body or both
Product: Spamassassin
Version: unspecified
Hardware: PC
OS: Linux
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P2
Component: Learner
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Target Milestone: Undefined
As outlined within bugs 7905 and 7906, meta tests are maltreated within the
__get_autolearn_points, maybe_header_only and maybe_body_only functions. I
suggest meta tests should be parsed further to determine whether they
constitute a combination of only header tags, only body tags or a mix. If it is
a mix, I would suggest a ratio is returned so the score can be partially
attributed to header and partially to body.
However, I can think of certain meta rules I've written of a similar form to
"if more than 3 of the following 10 tests succeed, then attribute this score",
it may sometimes prove difficult to clearly indicate whether a test is actually
header, body or a specific ratio of both. Therefore it's maybe worth
considering having meta rules report their own categorization, for example with
tflags like autolearn_header autolearn_body autolearn_both and the existing
noautolearn for those to difficult to categorise.
