Nevertheless, if you still prefer not to rely on it, you may lower a bit the spam tag and kill levels in Amavis such that pattern rules and network tests may suffice. I find bayes quite useful also in avoiding FPs, not only in detecting spam...

I didn´t understand until now. All make sense. I'm trying to use SpamAssassin in a structure as such: Postfix + Amavis + Clamav + SpamAssassin. Will I lose much considerably in the quality of my anti-spam if I not use the bayesian rule? Best Regards, -- []'s Thiago Henrique Network Administration Digirati Networks K8 Networks Hostnet Hosting

The results of the Bayes examination are rules based on the 0-100 spam probability. If I understand what you're asking though, the Bayes system results in 1 rule hit, whereas there are hundreds of other rules that can all hit, so generally rules would outweigh Bayes, unless you change the weighting (score) of the Bayes rule in relation to the other rules. -- Randomly Selected Tagline: "I am NOT a computer geek! ...

Best Regards, -- []'s Thiago Henrique Network Administration Digirati Networks K8 Networks Hostnet Hosting It depends on the scores you give each thing. I.E bayesian confidence 90-100% you might give 6 points to and a single rule onlly 1 point. But if the bayesian confidence was only 5% you may give it 0 points. Kate
