- Make sure that you are using MailMate 1.1.2 or later.
- In MailMate’s General preferences, make sure that SpamSieve
is checked and that it’s set to apply to new messages from the
Inbox.
- The Mark messages as Not Junk if score is below setting does not
affect SpamSieve or its filtering. Rather, if SpamSieve thinks a
message is less spammy than the score that you enter, MailMate will
tell the mail server that it’s not junk, and it will also decide
that it’s safe to display any remote images that the message
references.
- Now proceed to the Do an Initial Training section. To train
SpamSieve with spam messages, select the messages and click the
Move to Junk button, or choose Message ‣ Junk State ‣ Junk
from the menu bar. To train SpamSieve with good messages, select the
messages and click the Not Junk or Move Out of Junk button,
or choose Message ‣ Junk State ‣ Not Junk from the menu bar.
SpamSieve will process new mail automatically. The Spam Score column shows
how spammy SpamSieve thought each message was, on a scale from 0 to 100 (with 50
and above meaning spam).
