Rescore Mass-Check Instructions

THIS IS A DRAFT. Please fill in the TODOs if you have the answers...

Here's the procedure you'll need to follow, if you wish to submit data for the rescoring run for 3.1.0:

...

• the Mail::SPF::Query module
• the Net::DNS module
• Razor
• DCC
• Pyzor (TODO: this list probably needs updating)
  

If you're running nightly mass-checks, please feel free to disable them when running the rescore mass-check runs. Also, please note that the nightly submission accounts will work for rescore submissions as well.

Then run these commands:

  wget http://spamassassinpeople.apache.org/~jm/devel/Mail-SpamAssassin-3.1.0-pre2.tar.gz
  tar xvfz Mail-SpamAssassin-3.1.0-pre2.tar.gz
  cd Mail-SpamAssassin-3.1.0
  perl Makefile.PL < /dev/null;
  make

  cd masses
  mkdir spamassassin
  rm -f spamassassin/*
  echo "bayes_auto_learn 0" > spamassassin/user_prefs
  echo "lock_method flock" >> spamassassin/user_prefs
  echo "bayes_store_module Mail::SpamAssassin::BayesStore::SDBM" >> spamassassin/user_prefs
  echo "use_auto_whitelist 0" >> spamassassin/user_prefs

  nohup ./mass-check --bayes --net -j 4 --restart=400 --learn=35 --reuse \
        --after=1041397200 <targets>

...

The results for this run will need to be in by Monday Wednesday July NNth6th. If you're still running then, submit what you have so far and beg for more time.
