Summary: Spambayes can INCREASE spam - change required
Initial Comment:
Hi,
Spambayes defaults to scanning one folder for
incomming email, usually 'inbox', then moving that email
to a different folder if it is detected as spam - as we all
know, this works very well.
If you have auto-preview turned on, then the email is
moved AFTER the preview, meaning that any embedded
HTML in the email is processed. This email can make a
connection to a remove server, effectively
authenticating the email address as valid for the
spammer.
The solutuion should be to change the way Spambayes
filters email in outlook, either by using a temporary inbox
and email rules, or by disabling HTML or auto-preview
before the email is checked.
Since installing spambayes my daily quantity of spam has
doubled!!
Regards,
Jason (the-moog)
