Subject: RE: [sniffer] Surprising missed spam
To which addresss should I send these?
Also, I mis-stated the spam. They were not plain text, but html, but clearly have many "classic" spam attributes. I will send them along, but need to know where.

Can you zip up some examples and send them to me? I'm researching this issue right now and I need more data.
Thanks, _M
PS: A number of word / phrase based rules have been dropped from the core rule base due to false positives - not many, but this might explain some of what you're seeing - I will know more when I have some examples. If that's the case I can always put the rules back in for your local rule base.
