SpamAssassin scores measure "spaminess"; the higher the score, the more likely the message is spam. If a threshold of 5 gives false positives, 1 will give many more false positives. If you are getting too many false positives, you need to raise the reject score, not lower it. Or, you can adjust the score for rules that contribute too much to false positives. There are a lot of things you can do with custom rules and scoring in SpamAssassin, but this is not the list for discussing that. -- Mark Sapiro <m...@msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
