This is "raw" data for ASSP and is not intended for admin review.
First, make use of the "Non-Default Settings" and compare your settings against the defaults for that version. Fritz is continuously tweaking the settings based on his own real-time experiences - so even if you're running on the defaults from 1.3.5 or 1.3.9 beta, 1.3.9.1 may have changed something. This particularly applies to the PB settings. The two main tools you have are the "Info and Stats" page, and the sendAllSpam setting. Look to see what blocks are most effective in your statistics, and see if small adjustments make a difference. In addition, periodic review of the spam catchall will show you (assuming you've enabled the option is ASSP) the ASSP headers that will reflect what caught the junk. It's important to make small incremental changes when tuning something like this. The change history feature that allows you to review what you've done and when you did it is awesome. -- Daniel ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ Assp-user mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/assp-user
