Does anybody know the instructions for training SA with the contents of
the Thunderbird Junk folder ?
My web host, where SA is tunning, suggests I do this in order to reduce
the amount of spam I get, and I can login to my web host, transfer files
from my local machine to my web host, and run SA commands.
I have my users use the redirect plugin to send spams to an account on
the server just for this purpose. The redirect plugin will add a few
headers (and so will your mail server) that need to be cleaned out
first. If you just train on the junk folder file, you'll have to remove
all of the thunderbird related stuff first -- this was more work than
redirecting to a mail box. I have a script (VBS) that runs on the mail
server every night that takes the redirected mails, cleans the headers,
and moves them over to the folder for the SA server to pick up from. A
little later a bash script grabs the mail off the win mail server, runs
through the files and learns them as spam (ham is done in bulk learns
manually, but I could automate this as well.)
This same mailbox is my spam trap, so any other mails that end up there
are also trained as spam. With my user base, they are good enough to
police themselves, and I have just about all of our customers and
vendors whitelisted.
