Pegasus Mail & Mercury

I have a fresh Mercury/32 installation with SH activated. Feeded him with lots of good and bad mails and merged the example word DB. And as i see it starts working and marks more and more mails as spam.

But i receive one Mail with different subject but same content (german) 1 Billion times. I sent it to the spam correction adress a million times, copied it  1000 times to a textfile and merged it with the spamhaltertools, but still no SPAM mark

Log from the correction looks OK i think:

Any idea when SH will recognize this BS?

I know that i can block it via content control (and will do so...), but i think that is not the idea behind SH...

 

P.S. Sorry, started the Thread in the wrong Section (Pegasus Mail), but deleted it and now I´m hopefully in the correct Section

Actually, here's what the Spamhalter log should look like (in debug mode) when doing a successful correction:

Here the correction has arrived and been saved to the spam mailbox.
When the next message arrives the correction will be handled by SpamHalter:

So unless you see lines starting with C no correction has been attempted.

This was done by redirecting the correction to the spam mailbox, which in a bit tricky as the mail client may not send the message exactly as it was originally. Doing corrections by moving with IMAP seems to me to be a better way.

OK, I see the point, thank you. This is something i supposed before and tried to delete the " FWD parts" from my Mailclient, but this is really not very usefull;-))

 So now i have an other prob;-) How can i copy the spammails to the spam folder. I´m using IMAP but can´t copy the mails out of my root folder to another root folder (spam@xxxxx.xx), which is the spam mailbox in SH. And I can´t tell SH to look into the subfolder of my Mailbox for corrections?

 

 

In your client, add another IMAP account for spam@xxxx.xx, then just drag and drop the spams to the INBOX of the spam account.

  This was to easy to for me to find it out by myself... Thank you, it´s working and now I have a "C" in my log
