Is this not a duplicate of https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/evolution/+bug/9870 ?
I'm reluctant to mark 48872 as a dupe, as others may feel they are separate problems, but from reading 9870, it seems to me that spam filtering has been mangled in Evolution for years, this isn't something new. For example, https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/evolution/+bug/62192 also concerns broken spam handling. To me, these seem to be symptons of the same underlying problem: Evolution's spam filter doesn't work out of the box, cannot be trained without counter-intuitive actions (mark as spam, then ham), and does not cooperate with user addins (which shouldn't be necessary, IMHO). On that last note, https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/evolution/+bug/37878 seems to come from this same underlying problem. Would the problem get more or less attention and TLC if these bugs were all marked dupe of a 2+ year old high importance confirmed bug? -- evolution spamassassin plugin defaults to local mode, spamassassin defaults to network mode https://launchpad.net/bugs/48872 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
