Hi,

It would be good if I could check multiple messages and
then classify them all in one command. Frequently when
a new spam gets through the system, I'll get half a dozen
or a dozen copies. It takes time to click on the drop-
down list for each and select spam. It would be much
faster to be able to click on the check box and then
update a single checkbox at the bottom and hit a
"Reclassify checked as:" button.

I'm running Popfile 0.22.1 on XP.

Cheers,

Ian

    The history page was initially implemented as you describe,
    but John made a decision to change it to it's current
    incarnation.

    With the new skinning system it should be possible to make
    both possibilities a reality with only minor changes to
    POPFile's code.

    John, what is your feeling on skins providing alternate
    classification approaches?

    Regards,
    Sam

    A "friend" just sent me his collected and assorted spam, to
    "test" my spam filter.
    Of course half of it went through.
    It's quite annoying to not be able to select multiple
    messages and bulk-reclassify them, as it was possible some
    time ago (I distinctly remember having done that once before).

    Could we get that feature back?
    It's pretty useful :)

    The "spam" classification of spam forwarded to you by a
    friend is questionable.

    I don't forsee the UI changing until after 0.23.0, if at all.

    Regards,
    Sam
