OK, fair-enough, and your theory seems very valid. I wish they (Cloudmark) made a SA plugin for us SOHO users that can't afford (and don't need) a full Cloudmark Authority server/setup. I'd pay a license fee if it were reasonable and it performed anywhere near as accurately as their windows desktop product.
Guess I'll go add-in DCC as well (Pyzor already also included). Thanks for the response. -AJ Kevin A. McGrail wrote: > > On 1/5/2012 8:49 AM, AJ Weber wrote: >> Yes, I still have other rules enabled.
