Agree. I'm currently using sa 2.43 in a feedback loop together with bogofilter (bogofilter is trained according to spamassassin's decision, and bogofilter's decision gives - currently - 3.0 points in spamassassin). With only 6M bogofilter database, I have false positives down to below ca. 0.05% and false negatives below ca. 1%. So I'm definitely looking forward to the spamassassin bayes filter. > > spam messages as spam, and inadvertently flagged one ligit wanted > > message from that set.

Never, never, never automatically discard spam. (I've never caught a legit msg with a 10 or more score; discarding 15+ might be pretty safe. Except when some friend mails a joke-mail that is meant to be looking like spam, of course.). cheers -- vbi -- featured link: http://fortytwo.ch/smtp
