Subject: Possible SpamAssassin node info documentation error.
Date: Wed, 15 Oct 2003 14:31:59 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <87ptgy5mc0.fsf@raven.i.defaultvalue.org> (raw)


In the current info pages (for 5.10.2), in the "SpamAssassin, Vipul's
Razor, DCC, etc" node, it suggests:

     (defun kevin-spamassassin ()
       (save-excursion
         (let ((buf (or (get-buffer " *nnmail incoming*")
                        (get-buffer " *nnml move*"))))
           (if (not buf)
               (progn (message "Oops, cannot find message buffer") nil)
             (set-buffer buf)
             (if (eq 1 (call-process-region (point-min) (point-max)
                                            "spamc" nil nil nil "-c"))
                 "spam")))))

but my experience is that this doesn't actually work because the
buffer (at least during a "B q") is narrowed to the headers.  For this
to work as advertized, you need to add a (widen) after setting the
buffer, perhaps like this (also happen to be using spamassassin in
this example rather than spamc):

     (defun kevin-spamassassin ()
       (save-excursion
         (let ((buf (or (get-buffer " *nnmail incoming*")
                        (get-buffer " *nnml move*")
                        ;; probably just respooling or tracing...
                        (set-buffer gnus-original-article-buffer))))
           (if (not buf)
               (progn (message "Oops, cannot find message buffer") nil)
             (set-buffer buf)
             (widen)
             (if (zerop (call-process-region (point-min) (point-max)
                                             "spamassassin" nil nil nil "-e"))
                 nil
               "spam")))))

Hope this helps.
