Is there a way to utilize Entourage 2004’s Junk and Not Junk buttons to replicate SpamSieve’s Train Spam and Train Good functions?
I’ve just installed the trial version of SS on my wife’s Mac - she’s not particularly computer-literate, and will never remember to use the hotkey or menu commands correctly, but she’s used to hitting those Entourage buttons!
At present, the buttons (even with Entourage’s spam filter switched off) move the selected message to the correct folder, but presumably don’t actually process them with SS.
Maybe it can be achieved by using the Rules and Scripts? If so, I’d be grateful if someone can give me a run-through.
There is no way to make Entourage’s Junk buttons invoke SpamSieve. You need to use the SpamSieve training scripts, either in the menu bar, the contextual menu, or via the keyboard. Or you could use a third-party utility such as DragThing to create buttons for them.
I see, I was hoping the rules thing was automated (sorry, I’m new to this Mac stuff).
I’ll try a different approach - do you know if there’s a way of reordering the right-click menu, so that the “Train Spam” & “Train Good” commands appear at the top of the list?
That way I might be able to persuade SWMBO to persevere with a 2-click method…
