POPFILE-INSERT(8)

✨ NAME ✨

okay so bestie, welcome to POPFILE-INSERT(8) — yes, the System Manager's Manual girlies know. This is popfile-insert — feeds sample emails to a specified bucket to train POPFile. That's the whole assignment. 💖

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

popfile-insert <bucketname> <files> ...

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

The insert.pl script is literally the way to train your corpus: you feed it sample emails for a particular bucket, and those emails are parsed and internally reclassified to the bucket you specify. No cap. ✨

But bestie, listen: if you use this script to train POPFile via email samples, be careful about sample size. We do not recommend you submit thousands of emails to the script — you will end up with a huge corpus that offers little additional benefit to classification accuracy. It's giving "I overdid it" and we don't want that. 😭

Your best approach would be to stick to small representative samples of at most 100 emails per bucket. That's the move. 💅
