HOWTO for setting up a KMail antispam wizard configuration entry
================================================================
This is a HOWTO for setting up a KMail antispam wizard configuration
entry. Since this possibly is more developer related, I put this as
text file into the source SVN. Possibly some of this should go to the
user documentation.
I gathered the information from several mails and comments by Andreas
Gungl, the original developer of the antispam wizard for KMail, and
Ingo Kloecker.
When you have questions do not hesitate to ask me, Martin Steigerwald,
Andreas or Ingo.
Basics
------
The configuration file for the KMail antispam wizard "kmail.antispamrc"
consists of one entry for each spamfilter that the antispam wizard
shall support.
At the beginning of the file in the section "General" the option "tools"
specifies the count of configured spam filters. Increase that by one
when you add a new entry:
[General]
tools=11
A spam filter configuration entry starts with a header like this:
[Spamtool #11]
After this you place all the options for the spam filter. Please use
an ordering that is similar to the other entries in the configuration
file so that things are unified a bit.
General options
---------------
- Ident: Specifies the internal identifier for the entry
- Version: Specifies the version of the entry (FIXME what is this for?)
- Priority: Specifies the priority of the filter. This value is used to
place faster filters before the slower ones in the selection list. If the
user chooses the top item, they get the fastest filter. Provider sided
"filters" (which produce headers tough) like the GMX filter have a prio
at about 70, they are very fast as they don't consume time on the client
side. Since CRM114 is almost as fast it gets 65 ;-).
- VisibleName: This is the name that is presented to the user
Or:
- HeadersOnly=yes: This is used for entries where KMail should just parse
the mail headers for the spam score display (see Razor filter and below
for spam score display details).
Spam filter options
-------------------
These specify details about the spamfilter.
- Executable: Specifies a test whether the executable of the spamfilter
can be started. You should provide something which can be run on the
command line and returns [ $? -eq 0 ], i.e. it doesn't wait for any input
etc. It usually make sense to assume the program in the $PATH, so you
should better avoid /usr/bin. Set executable to "echo" for provider based
filters.
Example: Executable=crm -v | grep "CRM114"
- URL: URL to the homepage of the filter
- PipeFilterName: Name of the pipe-through filter used to send mails to the
spamfilter and get them back with added spam filter headers.
- PipeCmdDetect: Command used to pipe the mail into.
- ExecCmdSpam: Command used to mark a mail as spam.
- ExecCmdHam: Command used to mark a mail as ham.
- SupportsBayes: Set to 1 if you have a spam filter that can learn. Only
in this case KMail uses ExecCmdSpam and ExecCmdHam to let the user mark
mail as ham or spam.
Spam detection options
----------------------
These specify how KMail shall detect whether a mail is spam, unsure or good.
- DetectionHeader: The name of the header where the spam filter puts the spam
status of a mail into.
- DetectionPattern: The pattern the spam filter uses for marking a mail as
spam.
- DetectionPattern2: The pattern the spam filter uses for marking a mail as
unsure. Set "SupportsUnsure=1" when you use this.
- DetectionOnly: Don't pipe mails through the spam filter, but just use headers
from outside, e.g. a provider based spam filter (See GMX).
- UseRegExp: Set to 1 if you need to use regular expressions in the detection
patterns. KMail can operate faster when they are not required.
- SupportsUnsure: Set to 1 if you have a spam filter that supports
classying mails as unsure to tell the user to train those.
Spam score display
------------------
Those regular expressions are used to extract the actual "spamicity"
score and the threshold (i.e. the upper bound for non-spam) from
SpamAssassin's ScoreHeader. The score and the threshold are then used
for showing the spam status in the message header, i.e. the small
colorbar.
You need to specify the following values:
- ScoreName: The name that will be shown in the message header.
- ScoreHeader: The message header containing the score value.
- ScoreType: The type of the score, cf. below.
- ScoreValueRegexp: A regular expression for extracting the score from
the ScoreHeader.
- ScoreThresholdRegexp: A regular expression for extracting the threshold
from the ScoreHeader; only needed for Adjusted type. Please set to
nothing (ScoreThresholdRegexp=) if not needed.
KMail supports the following ScoreType values:
- Bool: Simple Yes or No (Razor)
- Decimal: For probability between 0.0 and 1.0 (BogoFilter)
- Percentage: For straight percentages between 0.0 and 100.0
- Adjusted: Use this when we need to compare against a threshold
