Author/Date | Spam? |
Flex 10/09/2002 8:25am | I notice there's a new Spam button on the toolbar that moves any message to the spam folder when pressed... I guess this feature will be extended somehow to incorporate blacklists etc? Just wondering :)
Keep up the good work :D |
fReT 10/09/2002 9:17am | I'm keen to implement some bayesian filters sometime, and well they need a group of spam and non-spam. So I'm collecting my own personal stockpile.
The spam button is to make it easier to collect the spam and mark it as such for future efforts at filtering. |
Lowspirit 11/09/2002 2:47am | The bayesian spam link was an interesting read, glad to see that you've taken interest in it, and hope to see future anti-spam efforts in i.Scribe some day.
Only flaw is that you still download it, which to me still is a semi-win for the spammer, it's like "Hey I may have missed your window with that piece of crap I threw, but atleast now it's on your yard". That's why I eliminate it directly on server, out of close to 5000 filtered mails I've had 2 wrongly detected as spam, and since logs are kept and people more then often have a "Sent" folder in their e-mail client, it's often just a matter for e-mailing a "Please re-send e-mail x to me" request and adding to allow list. But my filters aren't 100%, still some get through, and it's for those more uncategorisable ones I'd like a antispam feature builtin to my client, to catch the last 1-5% that irritate me. |
