I've been interested in offering customers to train manually train the
SpamAssassin Bayes filter for ham and spam (to reduce false positives and
negatives). However, I can only find documentation to this for local
mailboxes and IMAP. Most users however, retrieve their mail through POP
and use Outlook (Express) as mail client. Is there a way to train
SpamAssassin with such a setup (e.g. forwarding mail with Outlook
(Express) using SMTP)?
If you want to do a lot of programming, you could save all incoming messages for a few days in a database somewhere. When a user forwards a message to a special "ham" or "spam" mailbox, you pull the message-id from the message and use it to recover the original message from your database.

My question is the same as Henrik, I have a bunch of email that is spam (either tagged by spam assassin or not tagged at all. I forwared it as an attachment to a "spam" mail box. What do I have to do now before I can get bayes to learn the message ... I read you have to remove the headers .... Could anyone give me a little more detail ?
Thanks, Peter
