This is not the way to limit spam, it simply raises the false-positive. > About 50 % spam gets a 4.4 so my required=4.5 is a tiny bit high. I would say that your require is half a point low. > I run sa-learn --ham on my inboxes. You inboxes likely contain spam messages that haven't been caught, so training on inbox will poison your bayes in favor of more spam. Unless your inbox is perfect (entirely devoid of spam and containing only desired messages) you should not do this. > Is there a way to whitelist all the email addresses in my inboxes? Sure. Grep them into your user_prefs file with whitelist_from. grep <flags> From: <all my inboxes> to get all the Drom lines, then put hose into user_refs in the form whitelist_from <email@addresss> This is probably a spectacular bad idea? It will also whitelist anyone using that email address, including spoofed mails that might otherwise be caught by SA. -- I AM ZOMBOR! (kelly) ZOMBOR!
