You mean, by sending valid content on high-scoring mails? Mmmh. Yes, this may create trouble to DCC, Pyzor and Razor. Not to SC, since they are mostly interested to Received: header lines. Ok. > 2) False positives get broadcast to the distributed services I did browse my quarantine to have a check to FPs. Didn't find anything at score 8... I don't think this would really be an issue, unless "something goes wrong" and my systems start quarantining good mails, which is a respectful case. Ok. I think I could always report to SC. What about reporting to DCC, Pyzor and Razor iff the message is already reported by one of these engines? That would probably defeat the DoS case. Giampaolo
