114 Bogofilter is a Bayesian spam filtering program. Get it from your local
|
|
115 distribution or from:
|
|
116 http://bogofilter.sourceforge.net/
|
|
117
|
|
118 You first need to teach bogofilter. This is done by running
|
|
119
|
|
120 bogofilter -n < good-message
|
|
121
|
|
122 on every good message, and
|
|
123
|
|
124 bogofilter -s < spam-message
|
|
125
|
|
126 on every spam message. Most Bayesian filters need 1000 to 5000 of each to
|
|
127 start doing a good job.
|
|
128
|
|
129 To use bogofilter, add the following .procmailrc recipes which you can also
|
|
130 find in the bogofilter man page:
|
|
131
|
|

|
|
140 Bogofilter continues to feed the messages it classifies back into its
|
|
141 database. Occasionally it misses, and those messages need to be reclassified.
|
|
142 MH-E can do this for you. Use \\[mh-junk-blacklist] to reclassify messges in
|
|
143 your +inbox as spam, and \\[mh-junk-whitelist] to reclassify messages in your

|
|
213 This is done by sending the message to Razor and by appending the sender to
|
|
214 ~/.spamassassin/user_prefs in a blacklist_from rule. If sa-learn is available,
|
|
215 the message is also recategorized as spam.
|
|
216
|
|
217 Spamassassin is an excellent spam filter. For more information, see:
|
|
218 http://spamassassin.org/.
|
|
219
|
|
220 I ran \"spamassassin -t\" on every mail message in my archive and ran an
|
|
221 analysis in Gnumeric to find that the standard deviation of good mail
|
|
222 scored under 5 (coincidentally, the spamassassin default for \"spam\").
|
|
223
|
|
224 Furthermore, I observed that there weren't any messages with a score of 8
|
|
225 or more that were interesting, so I added a couple of points to be
|
|
226 conservative and send any message with a score of 10 or more down the
|
|
227 drain. You might want to use a score of 12 or 13 to be really conservative.
|
|
228 I have found that this really decreases the amount of junk to review.
|
|
229
|
|
230 Messages with a score of 5-9 are set aside for later review. The major
|
|
231 weakness of rules-based filters is a plethora of false positives\; I catch one
|
|
232 or two legitimate messages in here a week, so it is worthwhile to check.
|
|
233
|
|
234 You might choose to do this analysis yourself to pick a good score for
|
|
235 deleting spam sight unseen, or you might pick a score out of a hat, or you
|
|
236 might choose to be very conservative and not delete any messages at all.
|
|
237
|
|
238 Based upon this discussion, here is what the associated ~/.procmailrc
|
|
239 entries look like. These rules appear before my list filters so that spam
|
|
240 sent to mailing lists gets pruned too.
|
|
241
|
|
242 #

243 # Spam

|
245 :0fw

|
|
255 $SPAM
|
|
256
|
|
257 If you don't use \"spamc\", use \"spamassassin -P -a\".
|
|
258
|
|
259 A handful of spam does find its way into +inbox. In this case, use
|
|
260 \\[mh-junk-blacklist] to add a \"blacklist_from\" line to
|
|
261 ~/spamassassin/user_prefs, delete the message, and send the message to the
|
|
262 Razor, so that others might not see this spam.
|
|
263
|
|
264 Over time, you see some patterns in the blacklisted addresses and can
|
|
265 replace several lines with wildcards. For example, it is clear that High
|
|
266 Speed Media is the biggest bunch of jerks on the Net. Here are some of the
|
|
267 entries I have for them, and the list continues to grow.
|
|
268
|
|
269 blacklist_from *@*-hsm-*.com
|
|
270 blacklist_from *@*182*643*.com

|
281 The function `mh-spamassassin-identify-spammers' is provided that shows the
|
|
282 frequency counts of the host and domain names in your blacklist_from
|
|
283 entries. This can be helpful when editing the blacklist_from entries.
|
|
284
|
|
285 In versions of spamassassin (2.50 and on) that support a Bayesian classifier,
|
|
286 \\[mh-junk-blacklist] uses the sa-learn program to recategorize the message as
|
|
287 spam. Neither MH-E, nor spamassassin, rebuilds the database after adding
|
|
288 words, so you will need to run \"sa-learn --rebuild\" periodically. This can
|
|
289 be done by adding the following to your crontab:
