====Question or Symptom====
In the spam filter page, Spamprobe now says "Spamprobe is Trained and
ready". But... a) I've lost some real, legitimate mail! b) I've still
got some spam in my Inbox!

====Resolution====
Congratulations! Your learn_as_goodmail folder now has enough messages in it
to complete initial training of the Spamprobe filter!

Spamprobe is now active on your account. Messages which are not caught by
another filter (such as SpamAssassin, or a whitelist entry) will be passed
through the Spamprobe filter for classification. Messages which are "good"
will be delivered to your inbox. Messages which look like spam will be
dropped in the "suspected_spam" folder, which you can access via the web-based email, TWIG.

It is important at the early stages of using Spamprobe that you check the
suspected_spam folder for any "good" messages. If you find any there, copy
them to your Inbox, and to the learn_as_goodmail folder. This tells spamprobe
that it made a mistake and forces it to learn from that mistake.

Also, move any spam messages which get into your Inbox to the learn_as_spam
folder. Again, this tells spamprobe that it made a mistake.

IMPORTANT: Don't be discouraged if spamprobe doesn't seem very smart at
first. Depending on how much email you get daily, it may take 1-2 weeks for
spamprobe to learn exactly what your email likes and dislikes are. After a
couple of weeks though, it will become very smart and the torrents of spam
will be a thing of the past.

Here is a quick summary of how to deal with spamprobe from here on out. Save
this message for furture reference.

1. Check the suspected_spam folder for "good" messages. Copy them to your
Inbox *and* to the learn_as_goodmail folder.

2. If a spam lands in your Inbox, move it to the learn_as_spam folder.

After a while you may decide that Spamprobe is so smart that you don't have
to check the suspected_spam folder anymore. (After all, what good is a spam
filter if you have to check its work every day?) This is a personal decision
that only you can make, but most people stop checking it altogether within a
month.
