Makes sense to me. If you're getting a lot of spam from certain networks, the Received: headers would reflect that. For ham, the headers would be learned as ham and would offset other negative scores. I don't see a problem. I'd trust header+body-based Bayesian a little bit more than just body-based. Beyond a certain point, it's difficult to fake received headers. -- Satya. <URL:http://www.thesatya.com/> One man's "magic" is another man's engineering.
