239986 - Junk Mail detection doesn't work anymore

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 245168

(MailNews Core :: Filters, defect)

Description

[Jure Repinc (JLP)]

I'm using Mozilla 2004040710 on Windows XP. I first noticed this problem a few
days ago. If I manualy mark some message as Junk mail then Mozilla moves the
message to Junk folder as I have set. It looks like it just doesn't detect spam.

Reproducable: always

Steps to reproduce:
1. Enable Junk Mail Controls
2. Download some mail from the mail server or select Tools > Run Junk Mail
Controls on Folder

Results:
Mozilla Mail doesn't mark spam mail as junk and doesn't do what is set in Junk
Mail Control options.

Expected result:
Mozilla Mail should detect spam mail and do what people have selected in options.

OK I have renamed training.dat and again tried the command. Now it seams to be
working. Well it marked almost all my mail in Inbox as Junk and moved it where I
set it to. Shouldn't it by default not mark any mail sa junk and only mark the
mail after user trains it? Ah well this is probably another bug. I'll attach the
training.dat that was causing Mozilla not to mark mail as Junk.

Attachment: Bad training.dat

With this training.dat Mozilla Mail was not marking any mail as Junk.

Hm it looks like I was happy too soon. Even with deleted training.dat and
completely new one Mozilla doesn't mark messages as junk. Now I realy don't know
what is wrong. In a completely different profile all works fine but in this one
I can't get it to work anymore. Is it possible that the filtering doesn't like
some e-mails and crashes while runing? But then again it did mark all the
messages but few on the very first run and moved them all without a problem.
How to test this problem further? Any pointers are welcome.
