Hi. I was wondering what is a suitable way to handle non-native language spam? My native language is English and I'm using Evolution to get my email off IMAP and then it uses SpamAssassin to filter for junk. Are there S.A. plugins to test for non-native language spam? Would just clicked on [this is] "junk" button work? All pointers welcomed, Thanks, Michael
I recently looked at a few spam filtering packages. Two of them where SpamAware and SpamFighter. As I recall, both of those had a cool screen where you had a list of languages you wanted to allow. (It might have only been one of them, but I seem to recall both having it). I've actually since noticed that my client, Thunderbird, (which I understand basically just uses SpamAssassin for spam filtering) doesn't seem to have a similar option. Maybe SpamAssassin doesn't support this?
I know that's not overly helpful, but at any rate, that's what I know. =)
