*About imap-bayes [#v6f5aeaa]
-software to completely automatically distribute email in folders.
-intended for people using IMAP. Like [[procmail:http://www.procmail.org/]], it operates on the server-side.
-because it is a bayesian filter that learns previous classifications, ''defining rules is unnecessary''.
-''special action to correct a classification mistake is not necessary''. Just move the email to the right folder using your email application.
-The object of classification's folder is OK with any number of elements.
*Download [#t743f22c]
[[imap-bayes-0.2.tar.gz:http://gimite.ddo.jp/archive/imap-bayes-0.2.tar.gz]]
''* this software is a beta release. In the worst case, there's a possibility of arriving email disappearing because of a bug. Please handle with adequate care.''
*Operating requirements [#a7404095]
Email environment is:
-UNIX OS（currently only verified with FreeBSD 4.10).
-using qmail. ((it's believed sendmail or postfix can also be used, but here it is explained with qmail as prerequisite.))
-a mailbox in Maildir format（as described later).
-receiving email with IMAP.
Unless the mentioned conditions have been met, you cannot use it. In addition,
-[[Ruby:http://www.ruby-lang.org/ja/]] 1.8 or higher
is necessary, so please install.
*Simple instructions [#f49f6f8e]
Extract files from the downloaded file, and type the following as root:
# ruby install.rb --without-kakasi
Installation has finished. The rest is the configuration for each user (or mailbox). Open ~/.qmail and check if the following line exists:
./Maildir/
If the directory name is different, replace it in the following explanation. If the line doesn't finish with "/" (slash), you cannot use imap-bayes because your mailbox is not in Maildir format. Type:
$ cd
$ imap-bayes --init ./Maildir
$ imap-bayes --learn ./Maildir
and the first learning starts. It may take several minutes or more. (Later, learning automatically starts everyday.)
Finally, replace the following line in ~/.qmail:
./Maildir/
to
| preline /usr/local/bin/imap-bayes ./Maildir
Mail to yourself for trial. Is your mail delivered (to one of the folders) ?
