That is interesting. I am much more worried about false positives (missing a real email) than I am about false negatives (seeing a few spam emails). If there were a dial I could turn on the spam filter, I would try and make it "looser" (less likely to filter each message as spam) so that I have a much lower probability of false positives than false negatives. _______________________________________________ http://mccmedia.com/mailman/listinfo/brin-l_mccmedia.com
