I suspect you are right, Paul. And I restrict the group a little farther
to suggest it is large ISPs with diverse customer bases and global Bayes
who have the most trouble. Per user Bayes, a good set of SARE rules, and
significantly widened autolearn thresholds from base install levels may
be their solution.

Global Bayes is probably the ISP poison proposition. And autolearn with
normal thresholds is probably further poison.

But then, I run manual learn, private Bayes, and LOTS of rules. (40 sets
of SARE rules plus my own largish set of rules that apply to me but not
others works nicely along with the private Bayes....)
