-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Personally, I love the PGP signature bonus, and I think that should stay relatively high. I've never seen a piece of Spam with a PGP signature, and I use them quite a bit myself, as do many other IT folks. I don't think that Spammers are going to go through all the trouble of obtaining a PGP key and signing their messages just to slip one past SpamAssassin.

By the way, using my corrected scores with 2.1 for the last few days, I've had excellent results. Not a single false positive and only a couple missed spams. I think the new scores will be even better. Here's a quick list of the scores I still think might need tweaking: NEGATIVE SCORES that weren't indended to be: (probably by now most of these are just bad rules and should be set to zero) score CASHCASHCASH -0.839 score COMMUNIGATE -0.351 score DEAR_FRIEND -0.242 score DEAR_SOMEBODY -0.492 score EXCUSE_10 -0.408 score EXCUSE_12 -0.590 score FOR_JUST_SOME_AMT -0.148 score INCREASE_SALES -1.273 score LARGE_HEX -0.815 score MAILTO_LINK -0.226 score MAILTO_TO_REMOVE -0.107 score MSGID_HAS_NO_AT -0.320 score ONCE_IN_LIFETIME -0.405 score OPPORTUNITY -0.651 score PORN_6 -0.991 score PORN_8 -0.994 score PROFITS -0.162 score SUBJ_REMOVE -0.471 score SUSPICIOUS_CC_RECIPS -0.321 score TO_MALFORMED -0.050 score TRACKER_ID -3.369 (what happened to this one?) score X_PRIORITY_HIGH -1.168 NEGATIVE SCORES that are perhaps a bit too negative: score EGP_HTML_BANNER -6.039 score IN_REP_TO -5.029 score PGP_SIGNATURE -5.054 (I'm sure these were scored correctly, but any of them would be very easy for a spammer to add to a message to defeat SpamAssassin.) My only other concern is that a few scores might be a bit high - for example, CTYPE_JUST_HTML is at 4.459. This works for me, but I thought some people were having false positives on this rule recently. It wouldn't hurt to wait and see what people report, though. - -- michael moncur mgm at starlingtech.com http://www.starlingtech.com/ "If we don't change direction soon, we'll end up where we're going." -- Professor Irwin Corey _______________________________________________ Spamassassin-talk mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/spamassassin-talk -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: PGPfreeware 6.5.8 for non-commercial use <http://www.pgp.com> iQA/AwUBPIOOmzolM/gH+QSCEQJzwQCfUuH0vR+h4PNdjm+d54NEJp8TeXgAnA7z vayujtl1ei3UCw8jrlawjfn9 =wuOf -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ Spamassassin-talk mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/spamassassin-talk
