Hi,

Having a bit of a problem with getting the spam control in KMail to behave after I updated from KDE 4.3.0 to 4.3.1 today (in Fedora 11, 64bit).

Before the update SpamBayes was working quite well: there were a few mistakes on some emails, but it learned from them fast. Now, after the update, I deleted all filters and re-ran the anti-spam wizard, checking that the spam filters were set up in the same way as before and that the filters were applied to all messages from all email accounts set up in KMail. Since then, out of the 30 or so emails that have arrived, every single one has been classified as spam.

It's to be expected that the spam filtering system makes some mistakes at first, but it making a mistake on every single email seems to imply that something is wrong. The emails have been mainly ones arriving at an email address which is a shared moderator account for a website, but the emails are similar as before, and as said, the filtering worked pretty well before.

So, I'm wondering if I'm doing something wrong or missing something in setting up the filtering.

Can you see if any error messages related to KMail, or SpamBayes ( spamd / spamc ) are being output into ~/.xsession-errors?

No, nothing related to either there.

Now the function of SpamBayes has changed in that it marks about half of the emails as spam and the other half as probable spam. In running the anti-spam wizard and did not change the given settings there, excepting changing the folders for spam and probable spam (created new folders under local folders).

Here is my pastebin of the xsession-errors, in case I missed something:

There is nothing I could find in that log either. Please report a regression bug at bugs.kde.org.
