I ran "spamassassin --lint" through Perl's profiler back in July. I know
this isn't the same as checking mail for spam/ham, but I found that

So far our spam load hasn't been bad enough to require bayes, but the
sample milter in the libmilter documentation could easily be modified
to log into a database
I just got a spam mail containg a remove link, but it was written like
this: "r3moV3" and spamassassin missed it.
Maybe this should be added as a keyword. It also contained "Penís" (note

Good day to all!
I have a RedHat 8 server which serves mail for my
domain.
I have been wrestling with a way to train my filter
for spam and ham. I read that it isn't prudent to
train the filter with mail that has been forwarded
to another mailbox since the headers will be modified
resulting in a

Hey Mike,
The fix is post SP2 which means it was rolled into SP3. A vast majority of
the Exchange servers should be at least at that service pack if not SP4
which was released at the end of 2000.

No. You've got to write

The files are in /var/spool/spamassassin, not in /var/spool/spamassassin/bayes.
If I try this:
