-0.1 should be rather good. There are generally not many rules that will
drive a score downwards. (This may not be a good thing?) So placing the
threshold either a tenth of a point below or above zero is perhaps best.)

Thanks everyone for your suggestions. This is what I've done:
required_score 4
rewrite_header Subject *SPAM*
May I suggest a hint for the above line which may make handling spam
in a spam folder much easier?
If you change it to:
rewrite_head
SpamAssassin Never Deletes Email.
Please stand at the blackboard and write the above 1000 times.
It is OTHER tools, such as AmaVisD, MailScanner, or procmail, which
perform any deleting. Look to their configurations not the SpamAssassin
configuration.

I forgot to add, if you're processing more than 100k messages per
day, then you should probably apply for rsync access to the SURBL
zone files and serve them up locally:
http://www3.surbl.org/rsync-signup.html
That too will improve performance.

Are you running German-language rules on 3.0.x? If so this is

If you are only running English-language rules files, then this would

This is fairly common. It indicates that your SA and ruleset versions
do not match. Search the mailing list logs. This proble
sa-learn will help here. Another way to help is by grabbing some of the
rulesets off of rulesemporium.com that cover the spam which is giving you
the most trouble.

Perhaps the way to think about it is that by learning ham and spam, you are
showing bayes what ham and spam look like for you, and which is which.
That may translate to probabilities internally, but that is really a level
of detail

When you learn ham, you are teaching bayes about tokens that appear in
ham. When you learn spam, you are teaching bayes about tokens that
appear in spam.

Hello Matt and all,
I enabled SURBL checks on a secondary server yesterday. It catches spam so
great that I like it very much.
Today I enabled it on our main server... Queue started to grow, messages
were piling up. I had to revert back, queue then went down gradually.
Compared on both server
holy crap! I'll just take your word for it. :)

No. See Paul Gra
