NAME

       bf_compact - shell script to compact a bogofilter directory

SYNOPSIS

       bf_compact bogofilter_directory [wordlist_name...]

DESCRIPTION

       bf_compact creates a more compact bogofilter working directory with a dump/load cycle and renames the previous bogofilter_directory to
       bogofilter_directory.old.

       Note: bf_compact cannot be used to process the current working directory, ".", because that cannot be renamed.

       If no wordlist_file arguments are given, then bf_compact will use the configured set of wordlists, if the given bogofilter_directory is the
       same as the configured, or use all *.db files if it is a different directory.

EXIT STATUS

       The script exits with status code 0 if everything went well, and nonzero if it encountered trouble.

NOTES

       This script will delete bogofilter_directory.old and all of its contents!

       This script expects a SUSv2 compliant shell. Solaris systems should have the SUNWxcu4 package installed (when bogofilter is configured) so
       that /usr/xpg4/bin/sh can be used.

NAME

       bogoupgrade - upgrades bogofilter database to current version

SYNOPSIS

       bogoupgrade [-h] -d directory [-i input file] [-o output file] [-b path to bogoutil]

DESCRIPTION

       bogoupgrade is a command to upgrade bogofilter's databases from an old format to the current format. Since the format of the database
       changes once in a while, the utility is designed to make the upgrade easy.

OPTIONS

       The -h option prints the help message and exits.

       The -d specifies the directory with the wordlists for converting. This option is used when converting from multiple, separate wordlists
       (spamlist.db and goodlist.db - containing spam and ham tokens, respectively) to a combined wordlist (wordlist.db) which contains both spam
       and ham tokens.

       The -i specifies the input file to be converted. It should be a text file containing message counts, and possibly data. If there is no data
       in the text file, there should be a Berkeley DB file in the same directory as the text file which contains the data.

       The -o specifies the output Berkeley DB file.

       The -b gives the path to the bogoutil command. It defaults to 'bogoutil', in the hopes that your shell will find it.

UPGRADING

       Follow these instructions to upgrade bogofilter's databases to the latest version.

	1. Stop all instances of bogofilter. While the upgrade tools lock the database files, the upgrade may take a long time if you have a busy
	   site. Don't forget to stop cron jobs or daemons that fetch and process mail and could fire off bogofilter.

	2. Backup your data. Let's assume that you said:

	       $ mv ~/.bogofilter ~/.bogofilter.safe
	       $ mkdir ~/.bogofilter

	3. If your bogofilter version is less than 0.7, say:

	       $ bogoupgrade -i ~/.bogofilter.safe/goodlist -o ~/.bogofilter/goodlist.db
	       $ bogoupgrade -i ~/.bogofilter.safe/badlist -o ~/.bogofilter/spamlist.db

	   If your bogofilter version is 0.7 or greater, say:

	       $ bogoupgrade -i ~/.bogofilter.safe/hamlist.count -o ~/.bogofilter/goodlist.db
	       $ bogoupgrade -i ~/.bogofilter.safe/spamlist.count -o ~/.bogofilter/spamlist.db

	4. Current versions of bogofilter use a combined wordlist that holds both spam and non-spam tokens. It is named wordlist.db. If you're
	   updating from a version older than 0.14.0 that has separate wordlists (named goodlist.db and spamlist.db), use:

	       $ bogoupgrade -d ~/.bogofilter.safe

	5. Done. Restart any stopped daemons, cron tasks, etc.
