Hi there,
I just wanted to check that I have configured the spam-splitting stuff
in Gnus correctly. Here is what I have in my initialization file:
,----
| ;;Spam-filtering
| (setq spam-use-blacklist t)
| (setq spam-use-whitelist t)
| (require 'spam)
| (spam-initialize)
| (setq nnmail-split-fancy '(|
| (: spam-split) ;If sender is recognized in News/spam/blacklist, send to "spam" group
| "mail.misc")) ;Else, send to mail.misc
`----
I also have the post-processing variables for spam-blacklist set for the
mail.misc group itself. However, in my blacklist, I entered:
,----
| yahoo.com
`----
... with the intention of blocking all mail sent from the yahoo.com
domain, excepting the addresses I specifically included in my
whitelist. The thing is, I am still getting spam email from yahoo.com
addresses. Is my mail being split at all, or am I merely generating a
blacklist file that Gnus is not really taking any notice of? I must
admit, that I find the whole splitting/groups thing very confusing.
Regards,
