The first time around a message with FREE FREE in the subject and several times in the body came thru, it may have been a fluke. Someone here suggested maybe it was just to short to get a good run at. It was very short. But there were others too, now lost to memory. One nifty thing is that it is pretty painless to switch back to default by a simple renaming of /etc/mail/spamassassin/local.cf. It would probably be more helpfull all around to run in default and try to helpout with catching more of the crud. _______________________________________________________________ Don't miss the 2002 Sprint PCS Application Developer's Conference August 25-28 in Las Vegas -- http://devcon.sprintpcs.com/adp/index.cfm _______________________________________________ Spamassassin-talk mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/spamassassin-talk
