That's similar to what I do and some ESPs like Tuffmail do. An alternative would be to be more selective. I'm not sure if this is specific to dovecot but when I copy/move a file in IMAP the new maildir file has the same mtime, but a new epoch time in the file name. What you might do is generate a list of filenames that contain an epoch time later than the start of the previous run and sim-link them into a temporary directory, and then learn that. > if you have bayes already active as well as autolearn then why should > you run all this again, still more since manual work may not be > accurate. or do you read all this msgs to be sure they are ham/spam? Because autolearn is better than nothing, but isn't very good. It only learns the spam that's easily caught, It's very poor at capturing a representative selection of ham without miss-learning, and it wont train actual errors where BAYES has generated a point or more in the wrong direction.
