Really? None of my LEAF posts this week got tagged as spam, Jack. I've temporarily unsubscribed from the postfix list (I was starting to drown in email :-), but I wasn't noticing any FPs up until last week or so. Actually, my FP ratio has been very good with SA lately. I had a largish number of FPs with 2.20 (mostly mailing lists posts, as you are), but hardly any with the latest 2.41 version (from Debian unstable). I use amavisd-new to virus-scan, and also spam-scan, from postfix. However, I don't quarantine spam - I let everything pass thru to the user. > Most of this stuff I don't care about, true.

I'd say this reason would trump any auto-delete argument anyone can come up with. :-) -- PGP Fingerprint: 0AA8 DC47 CB63 AE3F C739 6BF9 9AB4 1EF6 5AA5 BCDF Member, LEAF Project <http://leaf.sourceforge.net> AIM: MikeLeone Public Key - <http://www.mike-leone.com/~turgon/turgon-public-key.asc> Registered Linux user# 201348
