Bug Description
Binary package hint: bogofilter
Hi,
in a clean installation, if you setup bogofilter as SPAM filter using kmail wizard, it looks like bogofilter cannot mark what is SPAM and what is HAM: every message, even after some weeks of training, has a spamicity of 0.52000000.
To fix this problem I did:
> create a dir and copy there some known SPAM messages (call them something
like s1, s2, ..., sN)
> in the same dir copy some known HAM (aka GOOD) messages (call them something like h1, h2, ..., hN)
> rm -rf ~/.bogofilter (maybe you want a mv ;))
> rm -rf ~/.bogofilter.cf (maybe does not exists...)
> bogofilter -v -n -B h1 h2 (tell bogofilter h1 and h2 are good messages)
> bogofilter -v -s -B s1 s2 (tell bogofilter s1 and s2 are SPAM)
After this manual feed bogofilter can understand what is SPAM and what is HAM; it works flawlessy with KMail and update its knowledge of what is good and what is not.
Hope I was clear, please ask for more info if you need them.

I forgot to mention: I found this problem in Kubuntu 6.06.
