The Brain{Storm,Dump}

_ This is a page for [SpamAssassin] developers and other interested parties to collaboratively jot down some ideas. Some of these might evolve into real code one day others might stay here forever. But as long as they are here, they are generally up for adaption and proof-of-concept implementations are welcome. Actual feature-requests should still go to \[http://bugzilla.spamassassin.org/ Bugzilla\]. If you write down an idea, try to think of all the pros and cons which come to your mind. And don't forget to mark your submissions with your name_ 

Multi-level rules

MalteStretz: The idea:

Bayes-driven rules

MalteStretz: The idea (see also "Multi-level rules"):

[MalteStretz]:  I just noticed that [BartSchaefer] submitted \[http://bugzilla.spamassassin.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3785 bug 3785\] "Suggestion: Use Bayes classifier to select among score sets" just a few hours ago.  Very similar to this idea.

SVM and RF

DanielQuinlan: trusted networks heuristic:

JustinMason: tried both of these before, expensive in terms of time, requires network lookups to compute trusted network boundary, also I got false negatives! (spams that were "close enough" to the MX record). Also this algo is very similar ot spamcop's.

DanielQuinlan: limit number of messages per sender (from morning talk)

MalteStretz: What does "SVM" and "RF" mean? (Too lazy too Google)

Trustwebs for Whitelisting

[MalteStretz]:  See \[TrustNetNotes\].
