DownloadbogoTrainer is a set of bash scripts that will help an email user to use bogofilter to determine whether a message is Spam or not. Bogofilter is the best method for detecting Spam emails because it can be trained by the user. Everyone gets Spam email, but not everyone gets the same Spam email. Bogofilter can tune itself to specific user and the kind of Spam that that user gets. It does this by getting feedback from the user if it's unsure about an particular email.
There are two bash scripts that accomplish this. One will look at the messages in the Unsure folder. If the user leaves them there for a preset time then bogoTrainer will register them as Spam and move them to the Spam folder. The user controls this by moving messages from the Unsure folder to the InBox, essentially telling bogoTrainer that the message is not Spam. The other script will look at the messages in the InBox. If it finds any Unsure messages there, will do it's part and officially register them as not Spam.
