G'day.

I am a newcomer to bogofilter.

I have set it up quite easily in my Linux environment but am keen to also 
filter mail for Windows users.

This raises the question of how to collect spam/ham datasets from Windows 
mailers for training purposes.

A search of the lists does not seem to help. What I would like is advice as to 
how to tell users of Netscape, IE and MS Outlook to provide me with sample 
spam/ham emails.

So far as I can see, none of the above have a "resend" capability and their 
"forward" formats are not easily restored to original state for processing by 
bogofilter.

Is there any HOWTO documentation for this scenario?
I am particularly interested in the situation where all mail comes in via 
sendmail for eventual retrieval via POP but is filtered centrally via milter.
I have already built a version of AMaViS-milter that invokes BF to do the 
filtering but need help building and maintaining the databases.)

Cheers and thanks,
Stephen Davies
