[SAtalk] Multi-match?

I have a rule for HTML comments much like: rawbody HTML_COMMENTS // score HTML_COMMENTS 0.05 But I want them to add up. Five matches is .25, ten matches is .5, etc. Is there a special way to make each match count separately? --- This sf.net

[SAtalk] spamd + bayes

RE: [SAtalk] Why tagged as spam when HITS < REQUIRED ??

Hmm, turns out that I'm getting admin messages about these, but they're not actually stopped. Looks like $sa_tag2_level_deflt and $sa_kill_level_deflt in amavisd.conf were the root cause. I've set them to match the sa setting in local.cf and will see how that runs... - steve
