I moved to other problems for a while. But my uncaught spam is getting worse by the day. SpamAssassin states in its own docs that it going to be useless without training (i.e. SA-LEARN). So I'm back again with same problem and question. SA-LEARN can't interact with the JAMES db mail store. It only deals with file system mail folders/files. It baffles me that I cannot find a SINGLE JAMES user that is using SpamAssassin with JAMES. Is that really the case, or are users just not getting around to responding?

Does ANYBODY know how to train the bayesian filter in SpamAssassin integrated with JAMES? If anybody understands the SpamAssassin API (assuming there is one), I'll looking into writing a Mailet to do the work. I and all my mail clients are drowning in uncaught spam right now.

By chance is there a utility that will dump a JAMES IMAP user folder into a file system MBOX folder? I 'guess' I could copy a db folder into a file system folder, then run sa-learn on it, then erase it. Sounds like duct tape and baling wire... But I HAVE to do SOMETHING.

Please give me some advice.

Thanks.

Jerry

I tried to get answers to this and other questions on the SpamAssassin forum. They basically told me to pound sand and to get a 'real' MTA instead of JAMES. I'm not throwing out everything just to be able to do better spam filtering. But I'm back here looking for answers. Is ANYBODY using SpamAssassin with JAMES?

I am using JAMES with a mySQL mail repository. I would like to be able to train the Bayesian component of SpamAssassin using sa-learn or some equivalent. All the documentation I can find on sa-learn assumes MBox format files for the folders containing spam/ham. To this point I can't find any documentation related to integrating sa-learn with JAMES using a mySQL repository.

Long ago before I was using SpamAssassin, I was using the BayesianAnalysisFeeder mailet. But that is not for SpamAssassin, is it? Is there an equivalent somewhere? Or just in general, what is the typical way everyone who integrates SpamAssassin with JAMES going about the process of training SpamAssassin?

BTW... I'm using JAMES 3.0 B5. But I'm assuming that the answer applies to all versions.

Thanks.
