It unnecessarily pollutes the database. Not if you learn a single fake ham, with the minimal content required to create a database and turn-on classification. This seems a pretty good solution because it conforms to the expectations and needs of someone who has a hand-waving idea of what a Bayesian filter is, doesn't want to to any reading, and just wants to get on with it. My guess is that that describes most kmail wizard users. If they understand that such filters need to be trained at all, they'll understand it might be erratic to start with - it's just common sense. _______________________________________________ Bogofilter mailing list [email protected] http://www.bogofilter.org/mailman/listinfo/bogofilter
