The sightings stuff mostly does not currently end up in the corpus, at least not in an automated way. The trouble is there's no real way to know if the stuff posted to sightings is bounced, attached, forwarded, or if it's a false-positive report or a false negative report. As I said, the truth is really that it's just a nice repository in case people want to go look through it. I do occasionally, but have to admit I don't do it as often as I might. Partly this is because the false(posi|nega)tive rate is so low, that there are other things more useful for me to spend time on right now. If over time our rates get worse, then we have that nice accumulation of sightings to go back to and make use of. C _______________________________________________________________ Have big pipes?
