I’ve been reluctant to move away from using Outlook Express for my personal POP mail, largely because it’s worked pretty well for me, all things considered.<\/p>\n
But one feature would make me fall in love with any e-mail client out there: learning-by-example.<\/p>\n
I want the program to learn, from the folder I drag the message to, what messages should automatically go into that folder. (I’d like to be able designate folders as non-learning, too, but that’s icing on the cake.) It would probably be some sort of Bayesian learning process; in fact, I could, in theory, get POPFile (my spam filter) to do it, except that it’s not terribly convenient to do more than just flag spam\/not-spam in it. Having it analyze multiple word combos would be helpful, too.<\/p>\n
If I could get something that would work by rules defined empirically, rather than my having to figure rules out, would be truly awesome.<\/p>\n
Does anyone know of anything like that?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
