IMF uses a proprietary Bayesian-like filter developed in the Microsoft think-tank called SmartScreen. It works pretty decent, at least for the type of spam I receive, YMMV.
Typically you will set the gateway blocking fairly high (~8) and set the junk-mail folder fairly low (3-4). The performance counters help you to tweak it a little better for your mail patterns as it shows how many mail messages are tagged with each SCL. You may find that it does the job nicely. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Erick Thompson Sent: Wednesday, May 26, 2004 2:02 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: Exchange 2003 SP1 for spam I was getting things ready for an installation of ASSP for anti spam use. Then, Exchange 2003 SP1 came out, and if it works well, I'd like to stick with it. Has anyone used it enough at this point to comment on how well it handles spam? One of things I like about ASSP are that any address you send to will automatically be whitelisted. And it's a Bayesian filter, but you can override it. I haven't seen any public info on how SP1 detects spam, so it anyone knows, please let me know.
