If found something at http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/spamassassin/trunk/masses/rule-dev/sought > > I run such a rule generator at $dayjob but it's far from being portable. > For me it was a very steep learning curve.. :) > (Thanks JM for helping out, back then) > > Axb > Thanks for the info. So generating your own Sought rules can still be effective. I guess the hardest part is probably the ham/spam corpus you need for it. Does your version run unattented or do you need to review your generated rules?
