Subject: spam.el: generic bayes interface?
Date: Tue, 20 Jan 2004 22:17:06 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <v9broy1fsd.fsf@marauder.physik.uni-ulm.de> (raw)

Hi,

in the German Gnus group someone asked how to use the
SpamAssassin/Bayes (see sa-learn(1)) thingie with Gnus.  I happily
pointed him to `spam.el' and the fine manual.  But it turned out that
there is no interface for SpamAssassin/Bayes in `spam.el' (or at least
I couldn't locate it).

I assume that SpamAssassin/Bayes works very similar to bogofilter [1],
so it probably works by abusing the `spam-bogofilter-*' [2] variables.
But this is a quite dubious approach, IMHO.  Wouldn't it make sense to
add a generic bayes interface with say `spam-bayes-...' variables
(similar to the `browse-url-generic*' variables) instead of adding a
set of variables for each (new) Bayesian filter?

Bye, Reiner.

[1] E.g. for training spam, he has to use "sa-learn --spam".

[2] M-x apropos-variable RET spam-bogofilter- RET
