greetings from sunny Sydney. I'm using Evolution 2.4, compiled from source on a Mandrake 10 box. I've been using the "mark messages as junk" junk button to train Evolution in junk detection.. so far +- 200 junk emails.. I have the options selected (edit -> preferences -> mail preferences -> junk) for automatic local and remote junk filtering on input, but Evolution never seems to learn - similar junk mails keep appearing in my inbox, I keep junk-buttoning them. I read in the user guide that Evolution uses Spam Assassin.. I had assumed that this was now built-in to Evolution. Wrong assumption ? Do I have to install S-A separately ? Or do I train it through some other path ? thanks
so you have enabled "check incoming mail for junk" under "edit | preferences | mail preferences | junk | general". this setting only refers to POP and Local delivery (i know that you could not find out, it is not part of the documentation, i'M going to file a bug report on that). if you use IMAP, make sure you have enabled "check new messages for junk contents" under "edit | preferences | mail accounts | edit | receiving options | options". also, spamassassin needs at least 200 messages marked as spam or ham to kick in, so you have to train your filter. afaik you have to have spamassassin installed on your computer to use it in evolution, it is NOT built-in. make sure the plugin is enabled (under "edit | plugins"). all in all after reading this, the UI isn't really cool currently. cheers, andre -- mailto:ak-47 gmx net | failed! http://www.iomc.de
