[HCoop-Discuss] Increase In Spam Being Let Through?

[Clinton Ebadi]

Ahoy,

Has anyone else noticed an increase in spam that is being scored
abnormally low? I've been getting inundated, and most of it is marked
BAYES_00 (i.e. bayesian classifier says it is ham). I haven't seen
anyone else mention it, but since we're all using the same bayes db...

A quick inspection shows that the bayes db is at least not outright
corrupted, but it may have somehow become poisoned (e.g. someone
accidentally sent spam to the SiteHam folder, autolearn went wrong,
...). If others are experiencing the issue, I'll backup the database and
force an expiry to see if that helps.

In the meantime, if you *are* suffering from such spam, remember to move
it to the shared.SpamAssassin.SiteSpam so that spamd can fix its errant
ways! A bit of retraining is likely preferable to expiring data from the
bayes db.

Note that going forward I *do* want to get per-user bayes databases
working. It looks like in 2014 it is feasible... in 2006 it wasn't ('tho
configuring per-user stuff is the sort of thing I suspect someone not-me
could figure out once I get mail off deleuze and our mail config
packaged/published in a few weeks).
