NAME

       pyzor - spam-catcher using a collaborative filtering network

SYNOPSIS

       pyzor [-d] [--homedir dir] command [command_options]

OPTIONS

       -d     turn on debugging

       --homedir dir
              use  dir  as the home directory for Pyzor instead of the default ~/.pyzor.  See the
              files section for more information on what files are inside of the homedir.

COMMANDS

       check[--mbox]
              Reads on standard input an RFC 822 (email) message. Exit code is zero  (0)  if  and
              only  if  a  match  is found and the global whitelist count is zero.   If --mbox is
              provided, then the input is assumed to be a unix mailbox, and all  messages  in  it
              will  be  checked.    If multiple servers are listed in the configuration file, the
              exit code will be zero (0) if and only if there is a match found on  at  least  one
              server (without it being whitelisted anyplace).

       report [--mbox]
              Reads  on standard input an RFC 822 (email) message. Reports to the server a digest
              of each message in the mailbox as spam.  Writes  to  standard  output  a  tuple  of
              (error-code,  message)  from the server.   If --mbox is provided, then the input is
              assumed to be a unix mailbox, and all messages in it will be sent to the server.

       whitelist [--mbox]
              Reads on standard input an RFC 822 (email) message. Sends to the server a digest of
              each  message in the mailbox for whitelisting. Writes to standard output a tuple of
              (error-code, message) from the server.   If --mbox is provided, then the  input  is
              assumed to be a unix mailbox, and all messages in it will be sent to the server.

       discover
              Finds  Pyzor  servers,  and  writes them to ~/.pyzor/servers. This may accomplished
              through querying already-known servers or an HTTP call to a hard-coded address.

       ping   Merely requests a response from the servers.

       genkey Based upon a secret passphrase gathered  from  the  user  and  salt  gathered  from
              /dev/random,  prints to standard output a tuple of "salt,key".  Used to put account
              information into the accounts file.   See  the  section  Using  Accounts  for  more
              information.

       digest [--mbox]
              Reads  on  standard  input  an  RFC  822  (email) message. Writes the digest of the
              message to standard output.   If --mbox is provided, then the input is  assumed  to
              be  a  unix mailbox, each message's digest is written to standard output, separated
              by newlines.

       predigest
              Reads on standard input an RFC 822 (email) message. Writes to standard  output  the
              normalized  lines  of  data  that  are  digested, with the exception that the lines
              printed have newlines (all whitespace is removed before digesting).

USING PYZOR WITH READYEXEC

       ReadyExec is a system to eliminate the high startup-cost of executing scripts  repeatedly.
       If  you  execute pyzor a lot, you might be interested in installing ReadyExec and using it
       with pyzor.

       To use pyzor with ReadyExec, the readyexecd.py server needs to be started as:

          readyexecd.py socket_file pyzor

       socket_file can be any  (non-existing)  filename  you  wish  ReadyExec  to  use,  such  as
       /tmp/pyzor:

          readyexecd.py /tmp/pyzor pyzor

       Individual clients are then executed as:

          readyexec socket_file options command cmd_options

       For example:

          readyexec /tmp/pyzor check
          readyexec /tmp/pyzor report
          readyexec /tmp/pyzor whitelist --mbox
          readyexec /tmp/pyzor -d ping

       ReadyExec can be found at: http://readyexec.sourceforge.net/

INTEGRATION WITH MUTT

       Add the following line to mutt.conf:

          macro index S "|/usr/bin/pyzor report"

       Then press S on the spam message in mutt to report it with pyzor.

FILES

       ~/.pyzor/config

       The  format  of  this  file is INI-style (name=value, divided into [sections]).  Names are
       case insensitive. All values which are filenames can have shell-style tildes (~) in  them.
       All  values  which  are  relative  filenames  are  interpreted to be relative to the Pyzor
       homedir.

       Defaults
        [client]
        ServersFile = servers
        AccountsFile = accounts
        DiscoverServersURL = http://pyzor.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/inform-servers-0-3-x
        Timeout = 5
