Good morning list,
Recently on the list there was discussion on how to take the e mail
addresses /characteristics of mail marked as spam from Thunderbird and
modify SA rules. I can't seem to find the notes on that.
1) Am I understanding that correctly?
2) Where might I find that reference?

I thought someone else might help out here, but no takers yet. :(
SA rules aren't actually modified. You're talking about the bayes
database which SA uses to learn about what's spam and what's not. The
sa-learn program updates the bayes database with tokens from spam
messages, and ham messages. That way, it stores up characteristics of
spam and ham, which helps it to decide whether a message is likely to
be spam or not.
There are (static) rules then, which give normal points to messages
based on the bayes probability. In order to weigh bayes scoring a
little more heavily, I have modified these values in my local.cf file
as follows:
# adjusting these scores gives bayes more weight
# commented values are the defaults
# score BAYES_00 0 0 -2.312 -2.599
# score BAYES_05 0 0 -1.110 -1.110
# score BAYES_20 0 0 -0.740 -0.740
# score BAYES_40 0 0 -0.185 -0.185
# score BAYES_50 0 0 0.001 0.001
# score BAYES_60 0 0 1.0 1.0
# score BAYES_80 0 0 2.0 2.0
# score BAYES_95 0 0 3.0 3.0
# score BAYES_99 0 0 3.5 3.5
score BAYES_00 0 0 -2.612 -2.899
score BAYES_05 0 0 -1.110 -1.110
score BAYES_20 0 0 -0.740 -0.740
score BAYES_40 0 0 -0.185 -0.185
score BAYES_50 0 0 0.001 0.001
score BAYES_60 0 0 1.5 1.5
score BAYES_80 0 0 3.0 3.0
score BAYES_95 0 0 4.0 4.0
score BAYES_99 0 0 5.1 5.1
HTH.
Can you use specific words or phrases? If so where do you put those?
