========== Forwarded message ==========
OrgaDoc has been designed to easily copy and maitain a pool of
documents between computers. You can synchronise your documents pool
with rsync or unison. You don't need to install a database server
(like MySql or PostgreSql), a HTTP server, a script language (like
php, perl, ...). You only need orgadoc to generate html pages and to
perform queries.
You can find the new release here:
ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/orgadoc/orgadoc-0.8.tar.gz

Subject: Bogofilter-0.17.5 - New Current Release
Bogofilter is a mail filter that classifies email as spam or ham
(non-spam) by a statistical analysis of the message's header and content
(body). The program is able to learn from the user's classifications
and corrections.
The statistical technique is known as the Bayesian technique and its use
for spam was described by Paul Graham in his article "A Plan For Spam".
Gary Robinson, in his weblog Rants, suggests some refinements for
improved discrimination between spam and ham. Bogofilter's primary
algorithm uses the f(w) parameter and the Fisher inverse chi-square
technique that he describes.
Bogofilter is run by an MDA script to classify an incoming message as
spam or ham (using wordlists stored by BerkeleyDB). Bogofilter provides
processing for plain text and html, supports multi-part mime message
with decoding of base64, quoted-printable, and uuencoded text and
ignores attachments, such as images.
Bogofilter is written in C. Supported platforms: Linux, FreeBSD,
Solaris, OS X, HP-UX, AIX, RISC-OS, OS/2, ...
******* ******* ******* ******* *******
Bogofilter-0.17.5 is the newest release in phase 2 of the bogofilter
"Code Clean-up" release. Since the release of 0.17.4, Greg has
completed his bogotune "mondo tune" project - running bogotune with 5
spam corpora (approx 60k ham and 60k spam in each of them). This
release incorporates the new values for robs, robx, min_dev,
spam_cutoff, and ham_cutoff (for folks using tri-state scoring).
File RELEASE.NOTES-0.17 has details of the "Code Clean-up" changes. If
you haven't read it already, do so! If you determine at some future
date that you need the removed code, you'll have to download 0.16.4
The files available at http://sourceforge.net/projects/bogofilter for
download.
