Subject: spam.el not saving spam-stat dictionary

Message-ID: <87wtknzwj2.fsf@stupidchicken.com> (raw)
[I sent this to gnus-ding yesterday, but I haven't been able to access
the newsgroup so I dunno if it got through. Sorry for reposting.]
I use the version of Gnus that comes with CVS Gnu Emacs.
I've been trying to set up the spam-stat spam filtering library, and I
noticed that the new emails I receive aren't being saved into the
spam-stat dictionary. From what I gather, emails that I mark as spam
are supposed to be "taught" to the dictionary as spam, and the rest of
the email as ham. In practice, ~/.spam-stat.el hasn't changed since I
first initialized it.
The problem seems to lie in `spam-summary-prepare-exit' in spam.el:
(dolist (article changed-articles)
(let ((id (spam-fetch-field-message-id-fast article)))
(when (spam-log-unregistration-needed-p
id 'process classification check)
(push article unregister-list))))
(when (and unregister-list (symbol-value check))
(spam-register-routine classification check t unregister-list)
The call to spam-register-routine is intended to save the article's
contents to the spam-stat dictionary.
However, unregister-list is actually always nil, because
spam-log-unregistration-needed-p is defined as
(defun spam-log-unregistration-needed-p (id type classification check)
(when spam-log-to-registry
....))
And spam-log-to-registry defaults to nil. Nothing ever gets pushed
onto unregister-list, and spam-register-routine is never called!
However, even setting the spam-log-to-registry to t does not fix the
problem. I'll continue looking into this, but someone more familiar
with the code would probably be able to find the problem faster.
Thanks.
