I upgraded from 2.60 to 2.61 and I am getting many false positives. It seems that Bayes is pushing it with a score of 5.4. What are people to do to get around this? Do you set Bayes for a lower score? Do you disable? Thanks!
5.4 BAYES_99 BODY: Bayesian spam probability is 99 to 100%
[score: 1.0000]
If you're getting BAYES_99 on a FP (ham) then something is wrong with your
training of the bayes database. Do you just use autolearn and/or do you
manually train it ?
That's a good question. I used whatever was the default for installing SA. I'm still a newbie to SA. Where do I look to find the answer to your question?
I also found out BAYES_00 scoring another false positive with 4.9.
Err, BAYES_00 is *minus* 4.9 :) And is correct if the message is ham. If
it still got flagged as spam, it must have had many other tests that
fired...without seeing the headers, we can only speculate...
I just assumed BAYES was all about spam, it is clear from what you pointed out I need to read more about what Bayes does. Thanks!
