Anyway, I put together a little installer package to put a self-contained version of SpamBayes in the Library and run it on startup. You can get the package, and more info about it here.

SpamBayes is a really neat little proxy server that adds a spam header to all the mail that passes through it; you can then use this to filter things with your mail client. Why do it at all? Well, Mail's bayesian filtering is OK, but not that good. The training system for SpamBayes is much better, IMHO.

How do I get Mail to use it?
Easily install the SpamBayes proxy server
I got it to work here, with a bit of tweaking. Not too hard:
Easily install the SpamBayes proxy server
i've got it working fine, on ports 1110 and 1025. I've trained it on the messages I've received so far today, and it has started correctly identifying some spam based on the limited training i've done so far.

Just use Mail's Rules and create based on the SpamBayes score in the header. Send ham into your Inbox, spam into a spam folder, and (optionally) unsures into a third folder for manual resolution.

yeah i figured i could go that route, but there's no way to actually mark mail as junk with a rule. i'd rather Mail get smarter each time i mark a SB-flagged message as junk, than have to maintain special folders for SB-flagged mail.
SSL and SpamBayes proxy server
Has anybody figured out a way to do SSL using the Spambayes server? I thought I had figured out a solution wherein I would use Entourage to connect to Spambayes using port 110 and then have Spambayes connect to STunnel which would inturn establish the SSL connection to my secure pop server. However, I'm unable to get STunnel to work on my 10.3.2 box. I checked the developer notes for Spambayes and it doesn't look like they'll be adding SSL funtionality any time soon. Any thoughts?

Won't work, Mail won't give me any errors but I won't receive anything either. If I change back to the regular server it works. My ISP blocks personal mail servers could this be the reason?

Can you get to the proxy server through your browser?
Spam Seive
Why not just use Spam Sieve? It's shareware, but works great with entourage and mail.
Spam Seive
Couldn't you just as easily say, why use Spam Sieve when this is free...??
