We use mxGuard and NUL all email classified as spam. We remain lax enough on the scoring so that gray area emails still get through, but put a lot of testing into determining our threshold so that anything caught is undoubtedly spam. We had done the filtering to a mailbox thing for awhile at first just in case, but the absence of false positives over the course of a few weeks and the massive size of the spamcatching mailbox prompted us to go ahead and just start dumping it. -- Kirk Mitchell-General Manager [EMAIL PROTECTED] Keystone Connect Unlock Your World Altoona, PA 814-941-5000 http://www.keyconn.net To Unsubscribe: http://www.ipswitch.com/support/mailing-lists.html List Archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/imail_forum%40list.ipswitch.com/ Knowledge Base/FAQ: http://www.ipswitch.com/support/IMail/
