NAME

Mail::SpamAssassin::Plugin::TextCat - TextCat language guesser

SYNOPSIS

loadplugin     Mail::SpamAssassin::Plugin::TextCat

DESCRIPTION

This plugin will try to guess the language used in the message text.

You can then specify which languages are considered okay for incoming mail and if the guessed language is not okay, UNWANTED_LANGUAGE_BODY is triggered

It will always add the results to a "X-Language" name-value pair in the message metadata data structure. This may be useful as Bayes tokens and can be added to marked-up messages using "add_header".

Note: the language cannot always be recognized with sufficient confidence. In that case, UNWANTED_LANGUAGE_BODY will not trigger.

USER OPTIONS

ok_languages xx [ yy zz ... ] (default: all)

This option is used to specify which languages are considered okay for incoming mail. SpamAssassin will try to detect the language used in the message text.

Note that the language cannot always be recognized with sufficient confidence. In that case, no points will be assigned.

The rule UNWANTED_LANGUAGE_BODY is triggered based on how this is set.

In your configuration, you must use the two or three letter language specifier in lowercase, not the English name for the language. You may also specify all if a desired language is not listed, or if you want to allow any language. The default setting is all.

Examples:

ok_languages all         (allow all languages)
ok_languages en          (only allow English)
ok_languages en ja zh    (allow English, Japanese, and Chinese)

Note: if there are multiple ok_languages lines, only the last one is used.

Select the languages to allow from the list below:

af - Afrikaans
am - Amharic

inactive_languages xx [ yy zz ... ] (default: see below)

This option is used to specify which languages will not be considered when trying to guess the language. For performance reasons, supported languages that have fewer than about 5 million speakers are disabled by default. Note that listing a language in ok_languages automatically enables it for that user.

The default setting is:

bs cy eo et eu fy ga gd is la lt lv rm sa sco sl yi

That list is Bosnian, Welsh, Esperanto, Estonian, Basque, Frisian, Irish Gaelic, Scottish Gaelic, Icelandic, Latin, Lithuanian, Latvian, Rhaeto-Romance, Sanskrit, Scots, Slovenian, and Yiddish.

textcat_max_languages N (default: 5)

The maximum number of languages before the classification is considered unknown.

textcat_optimal_ngrams N (default: 0)

If the number of ngrams is lower than this number then they will be removed. This can be used to speed up the program for longer inputs. For shorter inputs, this should be set to 0.

textcat_max_ngrams N (default: 400)

The maximum number of ngrams that should be compared with each of the languages models (note that each of those models is used completely).

textcat_acceptable_score N (default: 1.05)

Include any language that scores at least textcat_acceptable_score in the returned list of languages
