I'm going to have to break down soon and use Bayes :) Just to keep up with you guys. Spam wise, I'm catching about the same percentage without it. That says something! However for someone who doesn't want to stare blindly at spam headers/source I can see the gleam of Bayes ;) > > 2) If they aren't automatically caught by Bayes, they're fed to Bayes > same day. > Anything not caught is subjected to my wrath, printed, torn, crunched, then eaten!
