Jason Yes - very easily. You need a spam and ham folder on the ms-exch box that can be accessed via imap.
Then there are many perl scripts etc you can run on the mailscanner gateway machine that will grab the email and feed it into sa-learn. NB users need to move not copy emails for training otherwise it breaks the message headers etc.. -- Martin Hepworth Snr Systems Administrator Solid State Logic Tel: +44 (0)1865 842300 > -----Original Message----- > From: Jason Holbrook [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: 20 November 2007 04:40 > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]; users@spamassassin.apache.org > Cc: Josh Sindy > Subject: Re: HAM in Outlook to SA Learn > > Michael: > Thank you for your response.
