Re: Mark as junk in rules ?

I'm not going to respond to the question, since I do not have a good answer, but I might question this policy. I have this situation myself, as my mailbox host correctly tags some small percentage of my SPAM. I thought about doing just what you suggest, but at the end of the day decided to simply move the tagged mail to my SPAM folder without running it through Bayesian. The reasoning follows. I admit this is a kind of guess on my part, and I would be interested in a contrary explanation. I suspect that since the Bayesian filter learns, you may not want it learning stuff that you have other means of detecting. All I think you will do is make it try to duplicate the work done elsewhere, and it will be filled with words it does not really need or want to know about. -- Andy Philpotts Using The Bat! v2.01 on Windows 2000 5.0 Build 2195 Service Pack 4 Current version is 2.01 | "Using TBUDL" information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

I'm not good enough with Bayesian filter to know what's the good solution... But not marking SPAM as Junk will also fill the filter with bad data ?

My speculation is that it will continue to think of the e-mail as good. Maybe this is where my grand theory goes to hell in a hand-basket! Now I don't know what to do, or how to do it! -- Andy Philpotts Using The Bat! v2.01 on Windows 2000 5.0 Build 2195 Service Pack 4 Current version is 2.01 | "Using TBUDL" information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
