I think such a thing would be very difficult. Because scoring is mostly dependant on your personal configuration of SA. The more plugins you use, the higher the score will be. And that is independant of spam probability. You might be able to compare bayes probabilities with SA scores, but automating it would be very, very difficult. -Sietse
________________________________ From: John Rudd [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wed 26-Jul-06 12:13 To: SpamAssassin Users Subject: SA Score -> Confidence Percentage Does anyone have a scale that compares the SA score to a "percent likelihood that the message is spam"? Something like "a score of 5 is a 75% chance than the message is spam". But I don't want it just for a score of 5. What I'd like is for scores of 1-10. And I'd also like to see it for percentage likelihoods of 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 75, 80, 85, 90, 95, 96, 97, 98, and 99 (and maybe 100, but I expect that wont be meaningful) (so, I can say "an 80% likelihood happens at a score of 6" or something). It seems as though something like this must be done to keep the right amount of the base spam/ham corpus used with the GA within expected values. But I haven't ever seen an actual rating along these lines. Hopefully it's not in a completely obvious place that I've overlooked...
