I just started using Evolution with Ubuntu last Saturday. While I am
really happy with the program, I don't believe the Spam Filter is
working correctly. At first I realized that the Spam Assasin package was
required and I installed it. The filter still doesn't seem to catch
much. If anyone could be of help, I would certainly appreciate it. I am
migrating from Windows XP and am committed to making Evolution work for
me. Thus far I really like it. I also have the remote filtering box
checked.
Known bug, currently the spam filtering implementation does not work, as
spamassassin does not start to work until it has learned 200 non-spam
messages, and Evo has no way to teach SA what a non-spam message ("ham")
looks like.
You can work around it by using sa-learn on the command line. See the
spamassassin docs for more info.
