Why not introduce bmf (http://sourceforge.net/projects/bmf/) into the mail delivery process? I've just started using it and it's night and day. Bogus messages should be moderated since it's an adaptive filter and has to be told what's good and bad, but I trained my filter with 12K messages and ran it over some good mail for good measure and I can't even begin to explain how happy I am with the lack of SPAM that I'm getting. I'm actually going around and de-obfuscating my email addy now because my inbox is clear of the crap that I used to be getting. It takes a few days of training and explicitly setting what's good and bad, but I'm a believer now. I'm actually debating if I can train it to filter complaints from other people who are bitching about SPAM, as SPAM now. ::grin:: -sc PS I'm committing the port of this to FreeBSD in a few days when the freeze is lifted: htt://people.FreeBSD.org/~seanc/bmf.shar -- Sean Chittenden ________________________________________________ Kerberos mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/kerberos
