Description Richard Yao (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2015-01-04 21:41:53 UTC
spambayes is a fairly nice spam filter that integrates with procmail. It would be nice to have on woodpecker.

Email is already tagged by spamassassin, if you want to contribute filter training data, feel free to provide a maildir/mbox.

Is there any chance we could have spambayes available for individual developers to use?

Spam bayes is a better bayesian filter than spamassassin because it supports spam, ham and not sure. I used to use spambayes in the days that I used Windows and it was great. My .maildir is fairly unmanageable unless I use thunderbird, which is a resource hog. I would appreciate having spambayes as an option on the server so that I could drop thunderbird in favor of mutt and a filtering solution that has served me well in the past.
