My personal favourite is the way Mozilla Thunderbird works: you just have a toggle button in the user interface, for learning new messages and/or amending the classification.
Unfortunately the integrated Bayesian filter isn't very good, in my experience.
All I can say is:
- I've supplied a bunch of utilities together with the article (a link to it will be out any moment). Whith those utils, the hassle decreases by 80%.
- I've already had some success in integrating my scripts with the user interface of Sylpheed-Claws; unfortunately KMail doesn't offer (yet) such a flexibility.
- Once the dictionary is trained, you only need to update it from time to time. In my case, may be once or twice a month.
All in all, don't forget that Annoyance Filter at the moment is just the engine: as soon as a brave soul develops (or adapts) a user-friendly interface a la POPfile, that's it.
