As others have mentioned later in the thread, you should still be able to set up a site-wide Bayesian filter using bayes_path and appropriate permissions. However, I would also strongly recommend that you look at the "ok_languages" and "ok_locales" options in the SA documentation. I ran a bunch of your messages through my local SA setup, and every one I tried scored very highly (none less than 10, many over 20!). Though I'm using Bayes, the most effective tests for these messages appear to be things like CHARSET_FARAWAY, CHARSET_FARAWAY_HEADER, UNWANTED_LANGUAGE_BODY, etc. Every one of the messages I tried got hits for multiple language-related tests with a combined score well exceeding the default SA threshold of 5.0, even discounting bayes and network tests. One caveat--make sure you set BODY_8BITS to 0. The test (which is enabled by "ok_locales" is broken and causes way too many FP's. Nels Lindquist <*> ---- Quidquid latine dictum sit altum viditur.
