Newsletters seems to come at all hours of the day, and there are also "mail surges" when a company or ISP that sends you normal mail is offline for maintenance or other trouble and sends all the queued mail in a short time. You would want to make sure that your time based weight isn't too harsh.
Andrew 8) -----Original Message----- From: Jason Newland [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, October 01, 2003 9:04 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [Declude.JunkMail] Possible test Would it be feasible to add a test for the time of arrival of an e-mail? Used alone it is no good, but in the Declude weighted system I think it would be very useful. The theory behind this is to give e-mails that are delivered between X hours of the day ( say 1:00 a.m. and 6:00 a..m.) a weight of 5 (hold on 20). Since most of my spam is delivered during the wee hours, this should help in further reducing it without totally affecting normal night owls sending e-mail.
