anybody ever got the mozilla spamfilter to do some actual filtering?
I hear it's great but it doesn't do anything for me.
Yes, I have got it working for me. I don't know what you have done but
you have to compile the "corpus" in the Junk folder and mark it all as
Junk. You might have to close down Mozilla and restart it. After that it
is just a matter of tweaking it. I had a few false positives at the
beginning but none since then. Still getting false negatives but a lot
of them are spam messages with a single (usually pornographic) image
that can't really be filtered at present. I trust you have got it
enabled under Tools?
