Yep, a user must involve in this. At least with DSpam. For DSpam to work as expected MUST be configured user-by-user Your example of TigerDirect is perfect. Thinking a little about it, should we uninstall a properly configured, whole-system antispam spamassassin? I think SA (or another whole server spam killer) must be installed, with a very prudent configuration (the default toaster conf is perfect), to help avoid unwanted bulk traffic. Anyway bandwith is a scarce resource. > Lee R.
