Hello I have just joined the userbase of spamassassin, I have doing some preeliminary tests with my spam collection. I was happy to see that 50% of all spam I received is correctly identified as SPAM, and most of the rest lies in the border of being marked as SPAM (scoring around 4.1 ~ 4.9) by the default settings.
This rate would be greatly improved if there were rules specific for Brazilian spam (which comes in portuguese most of the time). Many of the english rules apply, it would be just a matter of adapting the strings that are looked for. Since I didn't find it anywhere I ask it here: Would it be a good start trying to replicate the english tests, translate them and assign them the same weights as the english equivalents? Since there are not specific portuguese language tests in the rules I guess that only using the tools provided for feeding the genetic algorhythms with my false negatives would not contribute much to the overall process... What should I do? Adapt the current tests in the way I've stated above and send the mods back to the development team? And after that begin sending stats about my false positives...?
