The END functionality was changed over a year ago. (I couldn't get to the release notes to check when)
When I first started using end, it would end the filter and return the current weight of the filter. ----- Original Message ----- From: John T (Lists) To: declude.junkmail@declude.com Sent: Friday, November 17, 2006 10:34 AM Subject: RE: [Declude.JunkMail] Filter 'END' statement in 4.3.14 flushes WEIGHT? Was never changed. Look at the directives. END means end the filter. What you should have been using is MAXWEIGHT at the top, or STOPATFIRSTHIT.

Importance: High Wow - really? When was that changed? I know that the filter "test" itself did not show as "failed", but the WEIGHT always carried over! Take a look at Scott's reply when this feature was implemented and the weight-result of the END was being discussed: http://www.mail-archive.com/declude.junkmail@declude.com/msg14009.html "[1] the E-mail will stop processing, [2] the test will *not* fail (this may change -- I'm not sure why it was set up that way), and [3] the weight will be exactly what it should have been when END was reached." And it's only logical. If you WANTED a filter to return 0, then you would simply place the 'END' lines at the BEGINNING of the Filter! If you place the 'END' line behind other lines that accumulated weight, then it clearly is the intention that the weights be COUNTED and that only any FURTHER weights not be added!

The END function means END the filter and do not add any of the points for that filter. If the END condition is met it is as if the filter never ran.

Hi, Can anyone confirm that the 'END' statement is functioning properly. I've been noticing/suspecting that certain test combinations had much too little weights and I finally have time to debug that. This is the entry in the GLOBAL.CFG CONTENT filter D:\IMail\Declude\CONTENTfilter.txt x 0 0 Means - the filter itself has a weight of 0 - all weights would be assigned IN the filter Here CONTENTfilter.txt: SKIPIFWEIGHT 20 MAXWEIGHT 9 TESTSFAILED 7 CONTAINS SNIFFER TESTSFAILED 1 CONTAINS SNIFFER-SCAMS TESTSFAILED 1 CONTAINS SNIFFER-PORN TESTSFAILED 2 CONTAINS SNIFFER-MALWARE TESTSFAILED 1 CONTAINS SNIFFER-OBFUSC TESTSFAILED -2 CONTAINS SNIFFER-IP TESTSFAILED 4 CONTAINS INV-URIBL-WT1 TESTSFAILED 5 CONTAINS INV-URIBL-WT2 TESTSFAILED 6 CONTAINS INV-URIBL-WT3 TESTSFAILED 7 CONTAINS INV-URIBL-WT4 TESTSFAILED END CONTAINS SPAMCOP TESTSFAILED END CONTAINS NJABLSOURCES TESTSFAILED END CONTAINS AHBLSOURCES TESTSFAILED END CONTAINS AHBLPSSL TESTSFAILED END CONTAINS SORBS-SPAM TESTSFAILED END CONTAINS SENDERDB-BLOCK TESTSFAILED END CONTAINS SBL TESTSFAILED 2 CONTAINS SNIFFER-IP As far as I can tell, the Filter works fine as long as there is only SNIFFER and/or URIBL and will return the proper weights around 7 through 9. However, if it hits the END statement is appears as if it always returns ZERO. In other words, it loses the weight that had been accumulated up to that point.
