15 dspam_clean is used to perform periodic housecleaning on DSPAM's meta‐
16 data dictionary by deleting old or useless data.
17
18 dspam_clean has no effect if you use the "hash" storage driver. In that
19 case, you should use the tools cssclean and csscompress (which do not
20 currently have manual pages).
21
22
24 --profile=PROFILE
25 Specify a storage profile from dspam.conf. The storage profile
26 selected will be used for all database connectivity. See
27 dspam.conf for more information.
28
29
30 -s Performs stale signature purging. If a value is specified, the
31 default value of 14 days will be overridden. Specifying an age
32 of 0 will delete all signatures from the user(s) processed.
33
34
35 -p Deletes all tokens from the target user(s) database whose proba‐
36 bility is between 0.35 and 0.65 (fairly neutral, useless data).
37 If a value is specified, the default life of 30 days will be
38 overridden. It's a good idea to use this flag once with a life
39 of 0 days for users after a significant amount of corpus train‐
40 ing.
41
42
43 -u Deletes all unused tokens from a user's dataset. Four different
44 life values are used:
45
46 sl Stale tokens which have not been used for a long period of
47 time
48
49 hcl Tokens with a total hit count below 5 (which will be
50 assigned a hapaxial value by DSPAM)
51
52 shl Tokens witha single spam hit
53
54 ihl Tokens with a single innocent hit
55
56 Ages may be overridden by specifying a format string, such as
57 -u30,15,10,10 where each number represents the respective life.
58 Specifying a life of zero will delete all unused tokens in the
59 category.
60
61
62 user1 user2 ... userN
63 Specify the username(s) to perform the selected maintenance
64 operations on. If no username is specified, all users are pro‐
65 cessed.
