It would be great if you could filter junk email into categories based on
spam probability %.

for example:-

Good (0% to 49%)
Junk suspects (50% to 69%)
Junk (Range 70% to 100%)


Obviously good emails would be forwarded

Junk suspects could be forwarded with JUNK SUSPECT added to the Subject
field, or automatically deleted, or wait for manual checking/deletion

Definite Junk could be set to be automatically deleted, or wait for manual
checking/deletion via the web interface

The user profile would have defaults just like other parameters, but for
'advanced' users their web interface could include options for setting the
% ranges, or the number of categories split.

An end user option for what to do with virus could also be integrated

ie whitelist certain types of file (in case clamav has false positive on
regular occurrence)

DSpam already adds "X-DSPAM-Result", "X-DSPAM-Confidence", and
"X-DSPAM-Probability" headers to each message.
You could modify your Mail Client rules or LDA to categorize the messages
based upon these headers.

I think you can do this with Dovecot and Sieve, or possibly Maildrop.

The web GUI already categorizes the spam by colour. It would be easy
enough
to parametrize the percentage that each colour represents. Are you
suggesting then, that we have separate quarantines for each category?
Wouldn't that make dspam more complicated to administer? I would
personally
like to see us simplifying it so that "regular" users can make use of it.
One motif that kept coming up, and my own experience with users confirms
this, is that dspam is too complicated for the general user, so group
classification was born. I'd prefer to make something much simpler and
intuitive and make a tool useful for as large a user base as possible.

Paul, I wouldn't want to see us going toward virus integration, or any
other mail filtering, over and above what dspam does now.

We need to concentrate on doing our mission, anti spam, as best we can.
Any deviation will take resources from our main stream and bring down the
overall quality of the product we supply. I don't see us doing a better
job
than clamav, when clamav fails. Also, that would mean running mail
through
dspam before clamav. Shouldn't clamav be run before dspam? 

My setup does:
1) RDBMS --> Reject/Accept
2) Domain Lookup --> Reject/Accept
3) No known user --> dev:null (stops them trying to find a real user, and
no backlash)
4) clamav --> dev:null/Accept
5) spamass --> dspam
5) dspam --> quarantine/mailbox

Now I only use the spamassassin step to see how much more accurate dspam
is.
This setup works great. Virtually no spam gets through and very little
false positives (I'm at 99.981% after over 300,000 emails in my personal
account).

Let's just try to be the best damn anti-spam product on the net!
