Well, SpamAssassin seems to have it’s sights set fairly well right out of the gate, but I have had to teach it a few things. Me being lazy, I developed the following script to automate the process of telling SA to read each of my three inboxes and the Spam folder to catalog the collection.

\n#!\/bin\/bash<\/p>\n

# SpamAssassin Teacher<\/p>\n

echo \"Reading SPAM folder...\"
\nsa-learn --spam --dir \/home\/your-username-here\/Mail\/Spam\/cur<\/p>\n

echo \"Reading Inbox1...\"
\nsa-learn --ham --dir \/home\/your-username-here\/Mail\/inbox\/cur<\/p>\n

echo \"Reading Inbox2...\"
\nsa-learn --ham --dir \/home\/your-username-here\/Mail\/inbox2\/cur<\/p>\n

echo \"Reading Inbox3...\"
\nsa-learn --ham --dir \/home\/your-username-here\/Mail\/inbox3\/cur<\/p>\n

echo \"Done!\"<\/p>\n

exit<\/code>
\n———————————————————————————————-<\/p>\n

To use the script, save it to your home directory as spammy.sh<\/code>. You will then need to set it as an executable file with this command:chmod 777 spammy.sh<\/code>, and call it using .\/spammy.sh<\/code> in a terminal window.<\/p>\n

I really love it when I get a chance to do a script, since it’s very close to the programming I learned waaaaay back in high school (DOS-based stuff and Pascal). Unfortunately, I don’t do many repetitive tasks that would benefit from being scripted.<\/p>\n

Of course, if I did, I’d end up going whole hog and becomming a programmer again. I don’t need that kind of workaholicism :)<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
