Most of my failures come from my myfile.txt file. I wrote down key phrases or words for a week or two and it seems to kill most of them. Got my first one today since we setup JunkMail four weeks ago! It came through clean as a whistle...I will look forward to setting up phrases in the body of the email. That will kill those that are smart enough to circumvent the system. I have my bounce set at 20 but all my key words and phrases set at ten. That way no one word or phrase will kill the email. Seems to be working...now if I could just get AT&T to get off the blacklist so Kithrup and dorkface and those others would go away. I do 90% of my work from home and use AT&T cable to access with.

This is where the weighing system comes into play. Tests like "no postmaster" and "no abuse" fail every message from systems like aol.com, msn.com, earhtlink.net, etc,etc... So they will appear as SPAM in your logfiles. You need to use the weighing system / edit your $default$.junkmail and your global.cfg to meet your needs. There is no cut/dry solution to spam, I have definitely learned monitoring this list that everybody has a different solution that fits their setup. The great thing about declude/sniffer is their flexibility, great mailing lists and frequent updates. (ex: we completely disabled the no postmaster/no abuse tests in our system, they are just too inefficient for our setup, but in other setups they are very useful ) -----Original Message----- From: Jim Rooth [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, July 26, 2002 3:18 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: KITHRUP:RE: [Declude.JunkMail] Declude and Sniffer I must be doing something wrong! I looked at the confirm log and I have caught almost half of the 20,000 emails as spam. I have poured through the logs though and have only found four obviously legitimate emails that should not have been caught. I fixed that with the myfilter file. Either I am doing it wrong or the program is great. I suspect the latter...

How many people are using both Declude Junk Mail and the sniffer add-on and has it made a difference if yes. I have been completely pummeled with Spam and am looking for more options. Thanks.
