• Spamhalter stopped working

    From brightside@21:1/5 to All on Tue Sep 24 14:48:25 2019
    Spamhalter has been working since 2012 without any problems.
    Suddenly two days ago all emails that used to be detected and placed
    in a junk folder no longer get detected. The traffic light is green
    for all messages..

    I can find no way of reseting spanhalter. I have 'cleaned' the
    database to no effect.

    Here's what system messgaes show whem pmail v4.73 is started.

    Tue, 14:36:02 Loading local legacy folders from cache file...
    Tue, 14:36:02 Spamhalter beysian plugin 4.5.2.180 started.
    Tue, 14:06:02 Spamhalter message size limit is: 250000 bytes
    Tue, 14:36:02 Spamhalter database size is: 17758 tokens
    Tue, 14:06:03 Program started

    How do I get the spamhalter 'plugin' to start working again?

    It is working but may be mis-configured. Go to Tools > Spam and
    content controls > SpamHalter... and look if it is properly
    configured.

    Yes it looks OK to me.

    spamhalter = enabled
    train always selected
    spam level (%) = 80
    not spam boost = 2


    Clean up has been done as a trial to get it to work.

    'Purge database records older than' 180 ' days',
    'Purge preview' gives result 0 out of 17758 records will be removed.

    First, check if SpamHalter is pointing to a valid (existing) folder.
    Second, check if this folder is functional (right-click > Check
    consistency).

    That's fine, but it is only meant to reduce corpus size. As you're
    using "train always" database size is not a problem.

    Lastly, you can set SH to build a log. With Pmail shut down open its
    settings file WI_sph.ini and change the line debug=0 to debug=1. If
    it is already 1 then you already have a WI_sph.log file in your home
    mailbox folder. Maybe it may give you a hint of what is going wrong.

    Here's the WI+sph file data:
    [spamhalter]
    junkfolder=3JM6AHDJ:367A:FOL04BA6
    bayspamprob=8
    baynospamboost=2
    enabled=1
    trainalways=1
    debug=0
    ForcedWrites=0
    MaxTokens=25
    SizeLimit=250000
    CustomHeaders=
    WALmode=0

    I changed debiug to '1'


    OK I'll see what happens.

    It's quite clear to me SpamHalter is working fine BUT your corpus has
    no usable data (i.e. corrupt). I'd discard it (don't delete, rename
    words4.db3 to words4.db3.bak), of course with Pmail shut down.

    If you have a backup of it, use it in place. That will save training
    time. If not, I can send you mine. It is not the ideal world but
    again will save you training time. Let me know.

    Lastly, change SpamHalter setting "Train always (larger database, self-trained)" to "Train on classification errors only (smaller
    database)". This will save you disk space and (more important) data
    processing time. Use this setting even if you're using your own
    corpus backup.

    Below is how your SpamHalter log should look:

    First, check if SpamHalter is pointing to a valid (existing) folder.
    Second, check if this folder is functional (right-click > Check
    consistency).


    Clean up has been done as a trial to get it to work.

    'Purge database records older than' 180 ' days',
    'Purge preview' gives result 0 out of 17758 rec

    That's fine, but it is only meant to reduce corpus size. As you're
    using "train always" database size is not a problem.

    Lastly, you can set SH to build a log. With Pmail shut down open its
    settings file WI_sph.ini and change the line debug=0 to debug=1. If
    it is already 1 then you already have a WI_sph.log file in your home
    mailbox folder. Maybe it may give you a hint of what is going wrong.

    This morning, start pmail, get mail, 5 messgaes that should be
    detected as spam were not.

    Here is the log file:

    Nothing there to indicate what is happeneing.

    It's quite clear to me SpamHalter is working fine BUT your corpus has
    no usable data (i.e. corrupt). I'd discard it (don't delete, rename >words4.db3 to words4.db3.bak), of course with Pmail shut down.

    If you have a backup of it, use it in place. That will save training
    time. If not, I can send you mine. It is not the ideal world but
    again will save you training time. Let me know.

    Lastly, change SpamHalter setting "Train always (larger database, >self-trained)" to "Train on classification errors only (smaller
    database)". This will save you disk space and (more important) data >processing time. Use this setting even if you're using your own
    corpus backup.

    Below is how your SpamHalter log should look:

    Thanks. Pegasus mail here is a two user mail system. The other user,
    my wife stopped using it over a year ago, hence I have copied her
    word4.db3 file, date 25082018 ( when the spamhalter was definitely
    working), to my C\PMAIL\MAIL\aml directory. Is this action
    satisfactory?

    Spamhalter is enabled and train on smaller database selected.

    Now it is wait and see for a couple of days or so.

    Indeed better. I'm pretty much sure you and your wife have the same
    taste of what is ham and spam. ;-)

    Spamhalter is enabled and train on smaller database selected.

    That is fine. I use Pegasus Mail quick actions (Folders > Quick
    open... > Define quick actions...) to deal with SpamHalter. That way,
    first action (Ctrl+1) moves messages into "Suspicious or junk mail"
    folder telling SpamHalter they are evil. OTOH fourth action (Ctrl+4)
    moves out messages from "Suspicious or junk mail" to an outside
    folder. You can use "New mail folder" for this, considering that if
    message is marked "Unread" it will be taken care (auto-magically) by
    your New mail filtering rules as they are arriving from a POP3
    session. If message is marked "Read" it will rest on your NMF waiting
    for your manual action.

    Moving messages in to and out of "Suspicious or junk mail" is the
    best and most effective way to train SpamHalter, as stated by its
    author Lukas Gebauer. Of course marking them as this or that either
    from the traffic light button or context menu will also do, but as
    Lukas told me once, moving them add extra emphasis on training and so SpamHalter will respond faster to that.

    Now it is wait and see for a couple of days or so.


    I hope you get it sorted fast.

    Thanks for your help. It looks like a part of the problem is
    addresses in the Global whitelist which shouldn't be there. Deleting individual entries will take many hours. Is there way to delete all
    entries with "one stroke of the prn" (enter key ! ).

    I am prepared to start again with a balnk whitelist

    It looks like a part of the problem is
    addresses in the Global whitelist which shouldn't be there. Deleting individual entries will take many hours. Is there way to delete all
    entries with "one stroke of the prn" (enter key ! ).

    Long time ago when I used a Bayesian classifier for the first time
    (POPFile) I realized that either whitelists and blacklists should be
    abandoned for good as it would compromise the more effective filter
    -- the Bayesian one. That said, blacklists, whitelists, content
    control, etc are all turned OFF here in favor of SpamHalter. Sorry if
    I didn't advise this at first time but that's because it is taken as
    mandatory here. My bad.

    I thought once to use this white/blacklist's entries as a form or
    SpamHalter auto-training but again I realized that it would foul my
    corpus by the same reason: addresses are easily spoofed.

    Anyway, these list are plain text files. Here they are named
    BLACK.pml, WHITE.pml, and WHITE.pm. Look at your home mailbox folder
    after them. Those with the .PML extension have a title line like
    \TITLE Junkmail Whitelist or \TITLE Junkmail Blacklist.

    I am prepared to start again with a balnk whitelist

    Do that. I'm sure SpamHalter training won't take much longer and
    after that it will spot ham and spam very accurately. The use of
    Quick Actions make the task yet easier.

    Thanks,

    You're very welcome.

    taste of what is ham and spam. ;-)

    Spamhalter is enabled and train on smaller database selected.

    That is fine. I use Pegasus Mail quick actions (Folders > Quick
    open... > Define quick actions...) to deal with SpamHalter. That way,
    first action (Ctrl+1) moves messages into "Suspicious or junk mail"
    folder telling SpamHalter they are evil. OTOH fourth action (Ctrl+4)
    moves out messages from "Suspicious or junk mail" to an outside
    folder. You can use "New mail folder" for this, considering that if
    message is marked "Unread" it will be taken care (auto-magically) by
    your New mail filtering rules as they are arriving from a POP3
    session. If message is marked "Read" it will rest on your NMF waiting
    for your manual action.

    Moving messages in to and out of "Suspicious or junk mail" is the
    best and most effective way to train SpamHalter, as stated by its
    author Lukas Gebauer. Of course marking them as this or that either
    from the traffic light button or context menu will also do, but as
    Lukas told me once, moving them add extra emphasis on training and so
    SpamHalter will respond faster to that.

    Now it is wait and see for a couple of days or so.


    I hope you get it sorted fast.

    Thanks for your help.

    It looks like a part of the problem is
    addresses in the Global whitelist which shouldn't be there. Deleting
    individual entries will take many hours. Is there way to delete all
    entries with "one stroke of the prn" (enter key ! ).

    Long time ago when I used a Bayesian classifier for the first time
    (POPFile) I realized that either whitelists and blacklists should be >abandoned for good as it would compromise the more effective filter
    -- the Bayesian one. That said, blacklists, whitelists, content
    control, etc are all turned OFF here in favor of SpamHalter. Sorry if
    I didn't advise this at first time but that's because it is taken as >mandatory here. My bad.

    I thought once to use this white/blacklist's entries as a form or
    SpamHalter auto-training but again I realized that it would foul my
    corpus by the same reason: addresses are easily spoofed.

    Anyway, these list are plain text files. Here they are named
    BLACK.pml, WHITE.pml, and WHITE.pm. Look at your home mailbox folder
    after them. Those with the .PML extension have a title line like
    \TITLE Junkmail Whitelist or \TITLE Junkmail Blacklist.

    I am prepared to start again with a balnk whitelist

    Do that. I'm sure SpamHalter training won't take much longer and
    after that it will spot ham and spam very accurately. The use of
    Quick Actions make the task yet easier.

    Thanks,

    You're very welcome.

    Latest update. I never use a blacklist, I just use filters to sort
    incoming mail to wherever I want it, including 'delete'. White list
    cleared out and number of records set to zero (help says that stops
    the white list being used, so outgoing mail does not add an entry).

    Now incoming mail triggers spamhalter. So all I have to do now is
    check all incoming mail and train spamhalter on false positives and
    negatives. Not a problem.

    Thanks for all your help.

    Great news! Glad it sorted out. Anyways, maybe you should also try
    either the PM-WIN mailing list or the Community Forum. I think
    there's not many Pmail people here on the Usenet. I'm fond of the
    mailing list but David Harris and the Beta Testers are pushing hard
    for the forum. Many of them are today forum-only users.

    Thanks for all your help.

    You're always welcome.
