I have a procmail filter that -- amongst other things -- filters international character sets and brute force attempts to a 'grey' folder. Combined with spamassassin, it surely stops a lot of email that normally would have ended up in my mailbox. I haven't taken a good look at how it can be implemented with RB yet, as there's no support for rules with multiple conditions, but here are some character sets that could be filtered into a 'grey' folder (regexp):
Code:
^Content-Type:.*charset=\"(koi8-r|iso-2022-jp|windows-1251|big5)\" ^Subject:.*=\?(koi8-r|iso-2022-jp|windows-1251|big5)\? If you get a lot of brute force spam, a rule like this can help you (regexp): Code:
!^(From|Reply-To):.*(postmaster|yourname(+[a-zA-Z0-9]*)?)@[0-9a-zA-Z.]*.com ^(To|Cc):.*<?[a-zA-Z0-9.%+-]*@runbox.com>?,.*<?[a-zA-Z0-9.%+-]*@runbox.com>?,.*<?[a-zA-Z0-9.%+-]*@runbox.com>? I just post it for what it is, it might help some to write a filter rule to stop these kinds of spam. PS: Runbox does not support procmail (yet?), so don't go looking for it in the settings. |

I have done exactly as you have posted at the begining of the thread, but for some reason the part below is not working for me:
(3) Create a "NotInWhiteList" folder and a filter defined as: Order: 999 Messages where: "Header" "doesn't contain" "USER_IN_WHITELIST" will be: "saved to folder" "NotInWhiteList" I am receiving e-mails, some spam in my inbox. They are not re-directed to NotInWhiteList folder. I have double checked to see if I had any spelling mistakes that may be causing this glitch, but i can't seem to figure it out. Any help is appreciated. THanks. |

dariusdjc,
If they are not being delivered to the "NotInWhiteList", what folder are they going to? Regards, Rich |

Take a look at the headers of these messages. Look for the "X-Spam-Status" header. It will look something like this:
Code:
X-Spam-Status: No, score=-98.8 required=5.0 tests=HTML_10_20,HTML_MESSAGE, UPPERCASE_50_75,USER_IN_WHITELIST autolearn=disabled version=3.0.3 If so then either the "From:" address or domain is in your Whitelist. Then you need to check your Whitelist. If not you should check your filters. Check to USER_IN_WHITELIST filter to make sure it's configured right. Check to make sure you don't have another filter that moves messages to your "Inbox" that could be moving these messages. If you can't find anything then you'll need to contact Support-at-Runbox-dot-Com to see if they can take a look at your filters directly. Regards, Rich |

Rich,
Your SPAM folder method has one very ugly flaw: emptying the folder. At least the Trash bin has an "(Empty)" link next to it. Deleting the entire contents of any other folder is far less fun. This is especially true while using webmail - which you lot insist is the only way to train the anti-spam. -ltwally |

Actually, the designated "spam" folder does have an "(empty)" link just like the Trash folder. This was implemented a while ago.
In addition, any folder that is used with a filter can not be deleted but trying to delete it will empty the folder. This isn't really a feature but a side-effect. If you select the folder and click the folder "Delete" button you will get a warning about deleting the folder and all it's contents. If you continue, all the messages in the folder will be deleted but the folder will remain. You will see an error message indicating that the folder could not be deleted because it is used by a filter. And yes, unfortunately, the only way to train the DSPAM trainable spam filter is from the Runbox Mail Manager (RMM) web interface. Regards, Rich |

Why not just create an "official" Spam / Junkmail folder, like many other systems do? Leaving Trash for user-deleted content just seems to work all-around better.

New accounts do have a Spam folder created automatically but you can still designate your own spam folder.

I see that I have a Junk folder, these days. Not real sure where it came from...
But it lacks an "empty" command, in the webmail, as the Trash folder has. |

I'm looking at setting up a more advanced spam filter that will just delete stuff that is almost certain to be spam, using this (http://www.emaildiscussions.com/show...9&postcount=41) as a guidline. I'll just set the filter to delete instead of move to a folder. (Trying to keep track of all that crap is just too much of a headache.)
My question: At what level does SpamAssassin currently decide that a message is spam? |

Any thing with a spam score greater than or equal to 4 is flagged as SPAM by SpamAssassin.
You can test the headers for "X-Spam-Level: ****" for 4 or greater or use "X-Spam-Level: *****" for 5 or greater or "X-Spam-Level: ******" for 6 or greater and so on. Regards, Rich |
