Enum SpamClassificationStage

Namespace

MailFathom.Domain.Spam

Assembly

MailFathom.Domain.dll

Names which stage of classification reached a verdict.

public enum SpamClassificationStage

Fields

Deterministic = 0

What the message itself carried: sender authentication, a provider's own spam headers, and where the mailbox filed it.

Scanner = 1

An external scanner's score over the whole message, reached under a named rule corpus.

Remarks

The stages are ordered by how much they cost and how much context they had. The deterministic stage reads what the receiving server already concluded and needs no scanner, no network, and no model; a scanner re-reads the message after delivery, without the network context the receiving server had, and therefore never overrules a fact the deterministic stage established.
