Re: Problem with Bayes learner.

Hi John, I had a similar problem, and with the help of the list, I was able to resolve it. Here is what you have to do. FIRST kill spamd - if the process is running, it will mess everything up! Second: run sa-learn --sync -D this may take a little while, but it will upgrade your database to

Setting up a filter for sa-learn --spam

I'm trying to setup an email address where I can redirect false negatives to so they will be learned as spam by Bayes without me having to login to the shell. This is what I have so far, but it doesn't seem to work. (note I am using cPanel with exim) Right now I am using a forwarder, but I can al
