  • In ImapJunkExporter - Learn spam / Spam lernen

    I added it and logs are produced. Also I tried to run the commands one by another and each returned a success message.

    So basically it seems to work this raises now another question for me:
    In the past monthes I got spam messages. And a couple of them was the same content again and again. I checked and there were over 20 mails with the same content I moved into the junk folder. But it was delivered to my mailbox again and again. This stopped after learning it like I did in my solution.

    So if this command learns spam in rspamd, why is it then so inefficient. In my case like not learning anything. And why is my solution so much more efficient?

    For now I am not switching my solution off because this is the only way for me to fight spam right now :-(

      In the last years I moved a lot of spam files into my junk folder. But I got the same kind of messages again and again. After introducing my solution I learned them and now they are not going to appear again (rspamd is now filtering them). So all in all if there is a sieve filter for spam it is not working. And on my system I am using the sieve filter to move mails so in general it is working fine.

      I think that auto learning spam is not there or at least is not working as expected. So moving mails into the spam folder is doing nothing for me. Also I checked my sieve folder of my mail account and the only entries there are for moving mails but nothing else (/var/lib/docker/volumes/mailcowdockerized_vmail-vol-1/_data/domain.tld/username/sieve/sogo.sieve).

      I checked the configuration and it seems like only dovecot knows the certificates for de-/encryption (mailcowdockerized_crypt-vol-1). So for me it seems like there is nothing triggered on moving mails into/from the junk folder. So moving them into junk is just placing them in another folder without any effect.

      My Mailcow is only storing encrypted mails to the local storage. So there is no folder to iterate over unencrypted mails for rspamd. So this is in my eyes not working for encrypted mail storages.

      If I am wrong let me know, I also never tried to feed rspamd with encrypted mail files. Main reason is, that rspamd should have no information about the encryption.

      (I checked the documentation again and it also says “You can use a one-liner to learn mail in plain-text (uncompressed) format”)

        Hello,

        if you encrypt the emails on the hard drive, unfortunately, you can no longer use the automatic learning of spam. However, since I still want to use it for selected email addresses, I have written a tool for this purpose.

        The tool is relatively simple. It downloads at intervals all emails that have been manually moved to the spam folder. These emails are exported to the hard drive as unencrypted “.eml” files.

        The learning itself must then be done on the server with a cron job as stated in the official instructions. The only disadvantage here is that you have to store every email account in a configuration file. For my few email accounts, this is currently a good solution. However, I still hope that there will be a feature in the future that allows automatic learning.

        Hallo,

        wenn man die E-Mails auf der Festplatte verschlüsselt, dann kann man leider nicht mehr das automatische lernen von Spam nutzen. Da ich es dennoch für ausgewählte E-Mail Adressen nutzen möchte habe ich mir hierzu ein Tool geschrieben.

        Das Tool ist relativ simple. Es lädt in Intervallen alle E-Mails herunter welche manuell in den Spam-Ordner verschoben wurden. Diese werden auf die Festplatte als unverschlüsselte “.eml” Dateien exportiert.

        Das lernen selbst muss dann am Server mit einem Cron-Job durchgeführt werden wie es in der offiziellen Anleitung auch steht. Einziger Nachteil hierbei ist, dass man in einer Konfigurationsdatei jeden E-Mail Account hinterlegen muss. Für meine wenigen E-Mail Konten ist dies aktuell eine gute Lösung. Allerdings hoffe ich weiterhin, dass es irgendwann ein feature gibt mit welchem das automatische lernen ermöglicht wird.
