INHERITANCE
Mail::Message::Head::SpamGroup
is a Mail::Message::Head::FieldGroup
is a Mail::Reporter
SYNOPSIS
my $sg = Mail::Message::Head::SpamGroup->new(head => $head, ...);
$head->addSpamGroup($sg);
my $sg = $head->addSpamGroup( <options> );
$sg->delete;
my @sgs = $head->spamGroups;
DESCRIPTION
A spam group is a set of header fields which are added by spam detection and spam fighting software. This class knows various details
about that software.
METHODS
Constructors
$obj->clone()
See "Constructors" in Mail::Message::Head::FieldGroup
$obj->fighter(NAME, [SETTINGS])
Mail::Message::Head::SpamGroup->fighter(NAME, [SETTINGS])
Get the SETTINGS of a certain spam-fighter, optionally after setting them. The knownFighters() method returns the defined names. The
names are case-sensitive.
-Option --Default
fields <required>
isspam <required>
version undef
fields => REGEXP
The regular expression which indicates which of the header fields are added by the spam fighter software.
isspam => CODE
The CODE must return true or false, to indicate whether the spam fighter thinks that the message contains spam. The CODE ref is
called with the spamgroup object (under construction) and the header which is inspected.
version => CODE
Can be called to collect the official name and the version of the software which is used to detect spam. The CODE ref is called with
the spamgroup object (under construction) and the header which is inspected.
example: adding your own spam-fighter definitions
Mail::Message::Head::SpamGroup->fighter( 'MY-OWN',
fields => qw/^x-MY-SPAM-DETECTOR-/,
isspam => sub { my ($sg, $head) = @_; $head->fields > 100 }
);
$obj->from(HEAD|MESSAGE, OPTIONS)
Returns a list of "Mail::Message::Head::SpamGroup" objects, based on the specified MESSAGE or message HEAD.
-Option--Default
types undef
types => ARRAY-OF-NAMES
Only the specified types will be tried. If the ARRAY is empty, an empty list is returned. Without this option, all sets are
returned.
$obj->habeasSweFieldsCorrect([MESSAGE|HEAD])
Mail::Message::Head::SpamGroup->habeasSweFieldsCorrect([MESSAGE|HEAD])
Returns a true value if the MESSAGE or HEAD contains "Habeas-SWE" fields which are correct. Without argument, this is used as instance
method on an existing Spam-Group.
example: checking Habeas-SWE fields
if(Mail::Message::Head::SpamGroup->habeasSweFieldsCorrect($message))
{ $message->label(spam => 0);
}
my $sg = $message->head->spamGroups('Habeas-SWE');
if($sg->habeasSweFieldsCorrect) { ... };
use List::Util 'first';
if(first {$_->habeasSweFieldsCorrect} $head->spamGroups)
{ ...
}
$obj->implementedTypes()
Mail::Message::Head::SpamGroup->implementedTypes()

$obj->isSpamGroupFieldName(NAME)
Mail::Message::Head::SpamGroup->isSpamGroupFieldName(NAME)
$obj->knownFighters()
Mail::Message::Head::SpamGroup->knownFighters()
Returns an unsorted list of all names representing pre-defined spam-fighter software. You can ask details about them, and register

type => STRING
version => STRING
$obj->spamDetected([BOOLEAN])
Returns (after setting) whether this group of spam headers thinks that this is spam. See

die if $head->spamDetected;
foreach my $sg ($head->spamGroups)
{ print $sg->type." found spam
" if $sg->spamDetected;

DETAILS
Spam fighting fields
Detected spam fighting software
The Mail::Message::Head::SpamGroup class can be used to detect fields which were produced by different spam fighting software.
o SpamAssassin
These fields are added by Mail::SpamAssassin, which is the central implementation of the spam-assassin package. The homepage of this
GPL'ed project can be found at <http://spamassassin.org>.
o Habeas-SWE
Habeas tries to fight spam via the standard copyright protection mechanism: Sender Warranted E-mail (SWE). Only when you have a
contract with Habeas, you are permitted to add a few copyrighted lines to your e-mail. Spam senders will be refused a contract. Mail
clients which see these nine lines are (quite) sure that the message is sincere.
See <http://www.habeas.com> for all the details on this commercial product.
o MailScanner
The MailScanner filter is developed and maintained by transtec Computers. The software is available for free download from
<http://www.sng.ecs.soton.ac.uk/mailscanner/>. Commercial support is provided via <http://www.mailscanner.biz>.
DIAGNOSTICS
Error: Package $package does not implement $method.
Fatal error: the specific package (or one of its superclasses) does not implement this method where it should. This message means that
some other related classes do implement this method however the class at hand does not. Probably you should investigate this and
probably inform the author of the package.
