Axb,
I'm not sure I quite believe it. And I'm not quite sure I trust you. But
you do make an attractive pitch. Excellent spam filtering, system-wide,
with no responsibility for training on the part of the users?
YOu don't need to trust me or believe me (I'm not selling anything -
just commenting on what works for me)
You can try it and after a couple of weeks, see if it works for you and
then if necessary come up with new methods for extra training or dump
the concept totally.
Bayes is yet another scoring mechanism in SA. If you have enough
traffic, you can wipe the data any time and it's not like you're
switching SA off totally.
During the dev/test process of the Redis backend, as stuff changed on a
daily basis I was forced to purge the Bayes data several times/week.
It even became a running joke (wave Henrik/Marc).
This sounds like the kind of "too good to be true" message that I'd
expect to receive in a spam mail.
:-)
But hmm. This is good dream material for tonight. I wonder if our Ubuntu
14.04 upgrade has SA 3.4 with redis built in. I do hear that the redis
backend is amazing.
Ever thought of running a newer distro in a VM, only for SA and let
spamass-milter use that?
That would mean you can play with SA 3.4 without having to redo all your
mail infra?
