Train or import

[qnc]

Following up from the thread about setting up my home computer as the drone.

I have trained my work computer a bit and am getting a lot less spam. I am deleting all my old spam emails as far as possible and will archive the rest once I get a hang of the EagleFiler.

So my question at this stage is given that I will have to set up the SpamSieve from scratch on my home computer is it better to train it from scratch as a drone computer or import the training from my work computer?

Here are my work computer stats?

You can transfer the training data from the Mac that already has it working well.

It looks like you’ve trained it but don’t have it set up to process incoming messages. Or, at least, it hasn’t done so in a couple days.
