I gave a brief test run to chickenpox.cf (~20 messages). The only time it triggered was on a ham in italian. It didn't even catch my own "sneaky [EMAIL PROTECTED]", who advertizes sex sites through short messages... Mmmh, maybe I'll give it a deeper testing, but I'm not that much confident about chickenpox.cf in my site (Italy). Thanks, Giampaolo
