In this paper anti-spam filtering is presented as a cumbersome service, as opposing to a software product perspective. The human effort for setting up, adaptation, maintenance and tuning of filters for spam detection is stressed. Because choosing the proper scores (relevance) for the spam filters is essential to the accuracy of the anti-spam system and one of the biggest challenges for the Apache SpamAssassin project (the most widely adopted anti-spam open-source software), we present a survey on single and multi-objective optimization studies for this purpose. Our survey constitutes a contribution and a stimulus for further research on this open research topic, with particular emphasis on evolutionary multi-objective approaches.
