Ishwar:
It's best to keep e-mail on-list unless one is discussing something
other than GNU/Linux, so I've cc'ed back to the list. It might help
someone else. :)
FYI I've used Spamassasin and Spamprobe prior to using Spambayes, and I
think I'll be staying with Spambayes permanently.
There's really not much to do in terms of setup. I run it with
procmail/mutt, and all I did was read the readme file, and use the
configuration recommended for mutt/procmail.
Procmail config to filter according to Spambayes header, and a mutt
config to be able to manually mark spam/ham. All this is covered in the
rather extensive documents in '/usr/share/doc/spambayes' with sample
scripts provided.
Then I simply trained it with 1k good and 2k junk mail that I had
accumulated. It really is pretty straight forward, and it just works.
