spam/notspam w/sa-learn

[Feasey, Nicholas]

Forgive my ignorance/stupidity on this subject but what do you mean by
redirect?

Yes, the cron job is in place, just want to give my users CORRECT
instructions on using the "auto-learn" feature.

I just want to be clear on the usage of the spam and not spam accounts used
in conjunction with the sa-learn script.

I can have my users forward any message received to either spam (to have it
identified as spam) or notspam (to have it identified as ham) and it will
be automatcially learned (sa-learn)??


It is important that they "redirect" and not "forward" their mail to the
addresses, as forwarding will destroy the headers and make it appear that
your users are the spammers.




Is this correct?


You do, of course, need my cron job script to do the actual work, mailboxes
aren't magic :-)



I don't want my users showing up as spammers because they are listed as the
forwarder.
