<h3>Theoretical part:</h3>
|
|
|
|
<p>Before you start to use bmf it is a good thing to know a little of
|
|
the theoretical background of
|
|
<a href="http://www.paulgraham.com/spam.html">Bayesian spamfiltering</a>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<h3>Basic installation:</h3>
|
|
|
|
<p>Put this at the top of your <tt class="FILENAME">.procmailrc</tt>.
|
|
|
|
<dl><dd><pre>
|
|
:0fw
|
|
* < 256000
|
|
| bmf -p
|
|
|
|
:0e
|
|
{
|
|
EXITCODE=$?
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
:0:
|
|
* ^X-Spam-Status: Yes
|
|
caughtspam # This is the mailbox where all spam goes.</pre></dd></dl>
|
|
|
|
<p>Now you have to tell bmf the difference between spam and non-spam messages.
|
|
|
|
As an example you can add these shortcuts to your <tt class="FILENAME">.muttrc</tt>
|
|
|
|
<dl><dd><pre>
|
|
macro index <f3> "|bmf -S\n<save-message>=zspam\n" "SPAM"
|
|
macro index <f4> "|bmf -N\n<save-message>=Maildir\n" "NO SPAM"
|
|
macro pager <f3> "|bmf -S\n<save-message>=zspam\n" "SPAM"
|
|
macro pager <f4> "|bmf -N\n<save-message>=Maildir\n" "NO SPAM"
|
|
</pre></dd></dl>
|
|
|
|
<p>Now you can press the F3-button to tell bmf the message is spam and the F4-button to tell bmf this wasn't spam.
|
|
|
|
<h3>Feeding a spam-archive to bmf:</h3>
|
|
<p>To speed up the process of feeding the bmf-database you can also
|
|
download a recent
|
|
<a href="http://www.em.ca/~bruceg/spam/">spam archive</a>
|
|
and run the files in the archive through the following oneliner:
|
|
|
|
<dl><dd><pre>for i in * ; do bmf -s -i $i; done</pre></dd></dl>
|
|
|
|
<h3>Mixing with spamassassin:</h3>
|
|
|
|
<p>You can also mix bmf with
|
|
<a href="http://spamassassin.org">spamassassin</a>.
|
|
This has the advantage that bmf is much lighter than spamassassin and
|
|
all messages missed by bmf but caught by spamassassin will be fed to
|
|
the bmf-database automatically.
|
|
|
|
All you have to do is to change the spamfilter-part of your
|
|
<tt class="FILENAME">.procmailrc</tt> to:
|
|
|
|
<dl><dd><pre>
|
|
:0fw
|
|
* < 256000
|
|
| bmf -p
|
|
|
|
:0e
|
|
{
|
|
EXITCODE=$?
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
:0:
|
|
* ^X-Spam-Status: Yes
|
|
caughtspam
|
|
|
|
|
|
:0fw
|
|
* < 256000
|
|
| spamc -p 4321 -f
|
|
|
|
:0e
|
|
{
|
|
EXITCODE=$?
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
:0:
|
|
* ^X-Spam-Status: Yes
|
|
{
|
|

|
|
| bmf -S
|
|
:0
|
|

|
|
}
|
|
</pre></dd></dl>
