SPAM training guide

Schleuder messages are copied to the vmail system user mailbox and automatically deleted after 3 days, so we have a chance to do manual training of SPAM.

This happens in both mail servers:

  • mail.lizard: hosts old @boum.org Schleuder lists and redirects mail sent to them to the new @tails.net lists.
  • mta.chameleon: hosts new @tails.net Schleuder lists.

To manually train our antispam, SSH into one of the servers above and then:

sudo -u vmail mutt

Shortcuts:

  • s for SPAM
  • h for HAM (no-SPAM)
  • d to delete

Important: If you're in mta.tails.net, do not train mail from @boum.org, but instead just delete them because we don't want to teach the filter to think that encrypted mail is spam.
