I user Courier on this particular server .. and for sa-learn to harvest spam out of a Courier/IMAP Maildir folder (because all Courier Maildir folders (regardless of whether it's the main "Maildir" or one of the subfolders) has a "cur" "tmp" and "new" subfolders ... this is what I have to do. I use a similar mechanism where I keep track of the different Ham and Spam folder names... and I use two different scripts to sweep through the file system with a HAM sweep (going through all of the cur, tmp, & new named sub-folders that are known to have HAM in them.... and another script that is setup to sweeep through the cur, tmp, & new SPAM sub-folders. This is what most of my HAM folders sa-learning script looks like: ##----NOTES------------------- $WORKDIR is the path of the main maildir (inbox) that sa-learn is processing. $DIRFILE is the name of the file that contains the list of named sub-folders of the main Maildir. $SALEARN is the variable that contains the full path to sa-learn. And since this particular e-mail system is fully database driven, "vmail" is the account of the virtual-mail while e-mail is processed. ##---------------------------- OUTPUT="$WORKDIR/hamfolder.out" # captures standard output output WIPPUT="$WORKDIR/hamfolder.wip" # captures current work-in-progress ERRPUT="$WORKDIR/hamfolder.err" # captures standard error output WORKFIL="$WORKDIR/hamfolder.do" # captures current named sub-folder for OUTFILE in `echo $OUTPUT $WIPPUT $ERRPUT $WORKFIL` do if [ -e "$OUTFILE" ] then echo "erasing $OUTFILE" rm $OUTFILE fi done DATE=`date` OFLD="tmp cur new" for FOLDERIN in `cat $DIRFILE` do for SUBFLDR in $OFLD do echo "$DIRPATH/$FOLDERIN/$SUBFLDR" > folder.do echo "---- $DIRPATH/$FOLDERIN/$SUBFLDR -----" >> $WIPPUT echo "---- $DIRPATH/$FOLDERIN/$SUBFLDR -----" >> $ERRPUT echo "---- $DIRPATH/$FOLDERIN/$SUBFLDR -----" >> $OUTPUT nice $SALEARN -u vmail --showdots --ham --folders=folder.do >> $OUTPUT 2>>$ERRPUT DATE=`date` echo "--DONE w/ $DIRPATH/$FOLDERIN/$SUBFLDR --" >> $WIPPUT echo "--DONE w/ $DIRPATH/$FOLDERIN/$SUBFLDR --" >> $ERRPUT echo "--DONE w/ $DIRPATH/$FOLDERIN/$SUBFLDR --" >> $OUTPUT done done echo "+-------------------------+" >> $OUTPUT echo "| |" >> $OUTPUT echo "| Learning about HAM |" >> $OUTPUT echo "| |" >> $OUTPUT echo "| DONE |" >> $OUTPUT echo "| |" >> $OUTPUT echo "+-------------------------+" >> $OUTPUT The main difference between HAM and SPAM processing is the "--ham" is changed to "--spam" in the sa-learn execution..... and where you see "ham" or "HAM" in the different variable file names.. they are changed to "spam" or "SPAM" accordingly as well. -- Tyler Nally [EMAIL PROTECTED]
