Description of problem: Recently bogofilter's spam sensing abilities seem to have gone all wrong in evolution. I was getting way too much span in the inbox (maybe 10% of my spam wasn't getting detected) and even though I was highlighting it and marking it as spam the same sorts of messages kept appearing. So I 1. Stopped evolution getting mail (using the offline icon) 2. deleted all my spam and emptied the trash 3. closed evolution (and ran evolution --force-shutdown). 4. moved ~/.bogofilter to ~/.bogofilter.orig 5. restarted evolution and went back online. For a while, bogofilter seemed to be doing a better job filtering spam (much less coming through to the inbox). However, having a look through the spam, I notice that all my fedore-(test|devel)-list email and a whole bunch of other email is getting filtered as spam. I highlight these and mark and not spam. Now I'm back where I started. When I first started using bogofilter is needed a little training (including having put non-spam in the spam box) but after a couple of days it settled and was quite good (maybe 1% of spam got into my inbox and very rarely a message I wanted went to spam), so I'm not sure what's gone wrong. I prefer bogofilter over spamassassin as the latter takes forever to filter through email, especially when you've been on holidays for a week and have to pull a couple of 1000 messages. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): [rodd@moose ~]$ sudo yum list | grep bogo bogofilter.i586 1.1.7-3.fc11 installed bogofilter-bogoupgrade.i586 1.1.7-3.fc11 installed evolution-bogofilter.i586 2.26.2-1.fc11 installed claws-mail-plugins-bogofilter.i586 3.7.1-1.fc11 fedora
Experiencing (ed?) the same thing as well but on 64bit system.
I will update bogofilter to 1.2.0 on the F-11 and F-10 branch. Hopefully that will fix it. If that does not help you probably have to contact upstream directly.
