Andrew 378:1038 is a pretty good ratio, we're seeing something like 7:2 where 7 aren't tagged by Sniffer (SNIIFER-NOTFOUND) but which are marked by Decludes other tests and found to be SPAM.
David -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Colbeck, Andrew Sent: 19 January 2006 18:00 To: sniffer@SortMonster.com Subject: [sniffer] Rulebots gone wild By the way, Pete, thank you very much for publicly posting the URL where we could download FPSigIDs.csv so that we could work on recovering our own false positives. I was able to use this information to selectively re-test all of the messages detected by those rules. That was 2,449 messages. More than half of those were detected as spam by other Message Sniffer rules, leaving me with 1,038 messages that I re-queued in my Declude JunkMail Pro on Ipswitch Imail. For what it's worth, that 1,038 messages that did not trigger any rules in the new rulebase included 378 spam messages which were then caught by my Declude JunkMail Pro configuration.
