Because I run it in a slightly time-critical environment. As soon as the call returns from sa-learn, the message file is moved (from Maildir/tmp to Maildir/cur). > My guess is that on most systems preloading the file into ram will not > deliver significant gains as I suspect SA to already do some > 'buffering' > for itself. I think it may be faster than writing it in a temporary file. Saves me one write access (from my script) and one read access (from sa-learn). The downside is that there may be a lot of messages to be learned as spam in a short time. The calls to sa-learn will overlap sometimes. > If your mail file is locked and you want to circumvent this you have > copy it first in a temp file see example script. It isn't locked, just moved elsewhere as soon as sa-learn finishes. > salearnscript (3 lines): > > cp %1 /tmp/spamfile$$ > /usr/bin/sa-learn --no-rebuild --spam /tmp/spamfile$$ > rm /tmp/spamfile$$ > > run this as > salearnscript <spamfile> & So this script does not meet my requirements (sorry, I did not fully specify them in my first mail). It should: 1) read the message file 2) go into the background 3) call sa-learn 4) clean up if necessary As soon as 2) is done, the original message file is moved elsewhere. Maybe I'll have to use two scripts :-) > Good luck. Thanks.
