Description

POPFile is an automatic mail classification tool. Once properly set up and trained, it will scan all email as it arrives and classify it based on your training. You can give it a simple job, like separating out junk e-mail, or a complicated one-like filing mail into a dozen folders. Think of it as a personal assistant for your inbox. For more information see http://popfile.sourceforge.net/.

yum install smeserver-popfile --enablerepo=smecontribs

Known issues

Update fails and break popfile

to update from version prior to smeserver-popfile-0.21.2-2.el5.sme, you need first to remove old package (rpm -e smeserver-popfile or yum remove smeserver-popfile) then install more recent package as described in this page. If you read this when this is too late, you can still remove present package with yum and re install it with yum.

The problem comes from older package post uninstall script that delete popfile init script and configuration db entry, impossible to fix as it is already installed.
