His question may have been pretty basic, born of laziness. But when you respond with "man sa-update" or RTFM, then you end up with a mailing list archive full of useless info, lowering its value as a useful resource. Ignore or respond with something useful. (In my opinion) Duane Hill wrote: O

You have described why it wont work as good. Using your method the headers become useless - bayes ill learn only the body/subject content. You would need to tell bayes to ignore the headers. With pop3 you only have the option you describe - this may still work ok? Pete Oenus Tech Services

Matt, your email in fact pointed out a bit of sloopiness on my part in the logging. I have changed it so it now should show correctly which messages actually trigger a call to spamc without me having to look at the verbose log listings. Thanks again, Pete HERE IS THE NEW rc.spam # send

I can only tell you that you are on the right track and that you will want to watch the rates at which things are added and the FP rates and character - then tweak the rules you use to keep this process clean. When I started using this approach I thought I had an idea what would work - and I was more wrong than right until about the 3rd round of adjustments.
