By rkent, on February 26th, 2009 Today I posted TaQuilla on the experimental area of AMO here. TaQuilla extends the tagging features of Mozilla mailnews products (Thunderbird and Seamonkey) so that tags are applied automatically using the same bayesian filter technology used for junk mail processing. TaQuilla requires Thunderbird 3.0 beta 2, which was released today.
Bayesian filters need training, and this is provided in the background for you as you tag or untag messages. Once you “prime the pump” by tagging some messages, and untagging a few others, then it just works. There are also some diagnostic displays available, that show the message tokens that [...]
By rkent, on February 24th, 2009 Recently I posted new versions of ToneQuilla, FiltaQuilla, and JunQuilla to mozilla’s addons site that support Thunderbird 3 beta 2, and Seamonkey 2 alpha 3 (SM is not supported in JunQuilla). In addition to version support, extensions have these changes:
ToneQuilla mostly gets an important bug fix to stop playing from ending prematurely. JunQuilla gets the new Junk Detail Analysis view that was mentioned in a previous post. FiltaQuilla gets three new filter actions: Run a Process with parameters, Train as Good, and Train as Junk.
The description page for each of the extensions has updated descriptions of the extensions, [...]
By rkent, on February 14th, 2009 Now that Thunderbird beta2 has entered slushy code freeze, it’s time to update my extensions to match. Here’s my plans, which I will try to accomplish near the time that beta 2 releases (currrently scheduled for 2009-02-24):
ToneQuilla
The published version has a bug that interrupts the playing in some cases. I’ll fix that, but otherwise no changes. Prior to TB3 though I would like to implement support for Ogg Vorbis files in TB core, and add that to ToneQuilla as well. I’ll try to add some more tones at the same time – though possibly in a separate extension [...]
By rkent, on February 3rd, 2009 I implemented this week an interface to view the details of the bayesian filter calculation (bug 451405). It will be part of JunQuilla and TaQuilla eventually. Although I was mostly motivated to add it because of the interest users might have in understanding the categorization that TaQuilla will do, I’ve found the viewing of junk tokens also very interesting.
Here’s a typical result for a spam email, using a modified version of JunQuilla:
The columns may need a little explaining. “Token” is the string that was detected as a token. If it is shown as a word followed by a [...]
