Scoring with X-Label
Hi,
[SUMMARY: Does the score function recognise a "~y" (X-Label) match?]
I'm trying to improve on the idea I found suggested at
http://www.ultraviolet.org/mail-archives/bogofilter.2003/1873.html,
which basically describes putting a spam filter's
"probability-of-being-spam" opinion of each message into mutt's index
view.
More specifically, I'm trying to get mutt to sort the "ham" mailbox by
increasing spamicity. That way I can concentrate while reviewing the
first n'th of the mbox, and then relax a bit and delete with impunity
as I get further down the index.
Has anyone any comments on the following? I'm assuming I can get
bogofilter to add its opinion of each message into X-Label: before it
gets into mutt. I think I can set it up so that each message has an X-Label:
line like
X-Label: X-Bogosity: Yes, tests=bogofilter, spamicity=0.95, version=0.15.4
and then give mutt the following folder-hooks:
---- BEGIN ----
folder-hook . ':set sort=threads'
folder-hook =spam/suspected ':set sort=reverse-score'
folder-hook . 'unscore *'
folder-hook =spam/suspected 'score ~y "city=1" 100'
folder-hook =spam/suspected 'score ~y "city=0\.9" 90'
folder-hook =spam/suspected 'score ~y "city=0\.8" 80'
... etc
folder-hook =spam/suspected 'score ~y "city=0\..9" 9'
folder-hook =spam/suspected 'score ~y "city=0\..8" 8'
folder-hook =spam/suspected 'score ~y "city=0\..7" 7'
... etc
---- END ----
My question is - does the ~y match work in this context?
The mutt manual (1.4.1) says
"note: For efficiency reasons, patterns which scan information not available in
the index, such as ~b, ~B or ~h, may not be used."
which seems to say that header (~h) information isn't available.
However, the documentation of index_format states that the following sequences
are allowed
"%y `x-label:' field, if present
%Y `x-label' field, if present, and (1) not at part of a thread
tree, (2) at the top of a thread, or (3) `x-label' is different
from preceding message's `x-label'."
... which might suggest that the X-Label (or is it x-label?) field /is/
"available" in the index.
Any thoughts?
More than that - is there a better way to achieve what I'm trying to do?
NB I'm explicitly trying to /avoid/ changing the message subject.
Thanks for any and all help!
