Googling on the topic seems to confirm false positives are not a problem with DCC. > Interesting that DCC is triggering on about 71% of my Spam, far higher > than I might have guessed. Meanwhile RAZOR2 hit on only 23% of Spam. I suppose because DCC is automatic -- I think anyway -- all incomming mail gets reported to DCC server, which checksums, and counts, while the idea with Razor is that the mail is human confirmed spam before submitting -- not sure, but I don't think Razor figures report frequency. > I didn't check the overlap between the two.

But now that you mention it, I suppose I'll have to figure out how to do that, otherwise, this inferiority complex is gonna get way out of hand.
