I don't see how a sightings mailing list is practical unless its processing is automated. I suggest feeding it into a script that knows how to extract MIME attached forwarded messages. Put the script in the CVS. Then people can submit patches to teach it to recognize mail that is forwarded inline with all headers and mail that is bounced, etc., which will allow it to not waste submissions that are not in the "correct" format, but you don't have to worry about that at first. In any case, forward as attachment is the one way to do it that everyone can use regardless of mail client, and the one way that is sure to preserve all the information. If your script adds the sightings to a corpus, you can run spamassassin over it and look over the false negatives. Every time you do that you will get a list of messages that are either not really spam, so you should be set up to delete any message from the corpus with a single click, or are false negatives. Would that be automated enough for you to work with? Is it easy enough to set up? -- sidney _______________________________________________ Spamassassin-talk mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/spamassassin-talk
