NAME
dspam_train – train a corpus of mail
SYNOPSIS
dspam_train [username] [–client] [-i index|spam_corpus nonspam_corpus]
DESCRIPTION
dspam_train is used to train and test a corpus of mail (in maildir or MBOX format). This tool will present each message to DSPAM for a classification and then retrain only if the message was incorrect. This provides close to real-world training and should be used to build pretrained databases. Upon execution, the tool will automatically determine the ratio of spam:nonspam and train based on that ratio to ensure both corpora are trained consecutively. This tool can also be used as a test jig to measure the efficiency and accuracy of a particular corpus against DSPAM in a given configuration.
OPTIONS
–client- If specified, DSPAM is used in client-server mode.
username- Specifies the user to train, if omitted the current user name is used.
-iindex - Use a index file instead of the usual spam_corpus and nonspam_corpus.
index: Path to the index file having the following format per line:
[class] [path to message]spam_corpus- Specifies either the pathname to the directory containing the corpus of spam, with each in a separate file (e.g. maildir format) or a path to the mailbox in the traditional Unix MBOX format.
nonspam_corpus- Specifies either the pathname to the directory containing the corpus of nonspam with each message in a separate file or a path to the mailbox in the traditional Unix MBOX format.
- Use a index file instead of the usual spam_corpus and nonspam_corpus.
