You only get ~10 spams/day? I get hundreds. Serves me right for maintaining an FAQ and other valuable Internet resources. I just read http://www.paulgraham.com/spam.html and am convinced that filters like spamassassin won't keep up and that Baysian filters are the way to go. One other filter I read about is ESR's bogofilter, whose Debian description appeals to me more than Debian's spamprobe description. I'll probably end up trying both, but would still appreciate hearing others' experiences. -- Bill Wohler <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://www.newt.com/wohler/ GnuPG ID:610BD9AD Maintainer of comp.mail.mh FAQ and MH-E.
