NAME

       dspam_clean - perform periodic maintenance of metadata

SYNOPSIS

       dspam_clean [--profile=PROFILE] [-s[signature_life]] [-p[probability_life]] [-u[sl,hcl,shl,ihl]] [user1 user2 ... userN]

DESCRIPTION

       dspam_clean is used to perform periodic housecleaning on DSPAM's metadata dictionary by deleting old or useless data.

OPTIONS

	--profile=PROFILE
	      Specify  a  storage profile from dspam.conf. The storage profile selected will be used for all database connectivity. See dspam.conf
	      for more information.

       -s     Performs stale signature purging. If a value is specified, the default value of 14 days will be overridden. Specifying an age  of  0
	      will delete all signatures from the user(s) processed.

       -p     Deletes  all tokens from the target user(s) database whose probability is between 0.35 and 0.65 (fairly neutral, useless data). If a
	      value is specified, the default life of 30 days will be overridden. It's a good idea to use this flag once with a life of 0 days for
	      users after a significant amount of corpus training.

       -u     Deletes all unused tokens from a user's dataset. Four different life values are used:

	      sl Stale tokens which have not been used for a long period of time

	      hcl Tokens with a total hit count below 5 (which will be assigned a hapaxial value by DSPAM)

	      shl Tokens witha single spam hit

	      ihl Tokens with a single innocent hit

	      Ages may be overridden by specifying a format string, such as -u30,15,10,10 where each number represents the respective life. Speci-
	      fying a life of zero will delete all unused tokens in the category.

	user1 user2 ... userN
	      Specify the username(s) to perform the selected maintenance operations on. If no username is specified, all users are processed.

EXIT VALUE

       0      Operation was successful.
       other  Operation resulted in an error.

NAME

       dspam_train - train a corpus of mail

SYNOPSIS

       dspam_train [username] [--client] [-i index|spam_corpus nonspam_corpus]

DESCRIPTION

       dspam_train  is	used  to  train  and test a corpus of mail (in maildir or MBOX format). This tool will present each message to DSPAM for a
       classification and then retrain only if the message was incorrect. This provides close to real-world training and should be used  to  build
       pretrained  databases.  Upon  execution,  the  tool will automatically determine the ratio of spam:nonspam and train based on that ratio to
       ensure both corpora are trained consecutively. This tool can also be used as a test jig to measure the efficiency and accuracy of a partic-
       ular corpus against DSPAM in a given configuration.

OPTIONS

       --client
	      If specified, DSPAM is used in client-server mode.

       username
	      Specifies the user to train, if omitted the current user name is used.

       -i index
	      Use a index file instead of the usual spam_corpus and nonspam_corpus.

	      index :  Path to the index file having the following format per line:
	      [class] [path to message]

       spam_corpus
	      Specifies  either the pathname to the directory containing the corpus of spam, with each in a separate file (e.g. maildir format) or
	      a path to the mailbox in the traditional Unix MBOX format.

       nonspam_corpus
	      Specifies either the pathname to the directory containing the corpus of nonspam with each message in a separate file or  a  path	to
	      the mailbox in the traditional Unix MBOX format.

EXIT VALUE

       0      Operation was successful.
       other  Operation resulted in an error.
