Mail filtering in Thunderbird 1.5Mail filtering in Thunderbird 1.5Posted Oct 13, 2005 9:36 UTC (Thu) by thomask (guest, #17985)In reply to: Mail filtering in Thunderbird 1.5 by djfoobarmatt Parent article: Mail filtering in Thunderbird 1.5
I have all my spam re-directed to the junk folder, but when I have time I tend to check through for false positives: these do happen occasionally. Of course, that might be to do with the fact that my ISP is quite aggressive about flagging up potential spam by altering the subject line.

Mail filtering with SpamAssassin Posted Oct 13, 2005 13:14 UTC (Thu) by shane (subscriber, #3335) [Link] I find that using SpamAssassin + procmail is good, because spam determination is not "yes/no". I refile things that are definately spam (lots of SpamAssassin points) into a "junk" folder, and things that are probably spam (a few SpamAssassin points) into a "junk-check" folder. I look at the contents of "junk-check" every week or so.
In the past 2 years or so, I have had something like 2 false positives in the "junk-check", and none in the "junk".
This system saved a lot of time I was wasting looking at spam.
