Larry/Jennifer, I have copied the chickenpox and popcorn rules which are working fine thanks very much Jennifer. Larry my install is also outside the firewall and therefore needs site-wide config and not user based and therefore getting bayes working is going to mean collecting a lot of hams/spams and transferring around (bit of a pain) but currently I have just started collecting to one day get it to learn so that in the future the need for some rules will be negated as you say.

I have been able to slowly decomission rules which makes SA more accurate and hands-off for me. I was concerned initially as my configuration is a gateway that does not allow user_prefs but rather only site-wide. I should also indicate that I am still using 2.55. In my specific case, Bayes does not score sufficiently to tag these specific messages as spam. So I continue to use my rules. Bob Menschel was kind enough to run the rules through masscheck against his 58K+ corpus. I have not fully had the chance to review his appreciated work so you might want to refer to the subject "[RD] Ideas" in the archives. I have not tried Jennifer's rules but her rules have been known to kick butt so I would not hesitate to use them. > I could be missing something here.
