add_header spam DCC _DCCB_: _DCCR_ will show the dcc stuff and the bayes stuff will show when it hits after sufficient training Greg ----- Original Message ----- From: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Thursday, February 19, 2004 3:28 PM Subject: Any Statistics available from SpamAssassin? | I have been using SpamAssassin for a year or so, and couldnt | get along without it. | | Still, I keep seeing writeups of Spamassassin where they say | that it is 99+% efficient at recognizing spam, at least now | that it has the Baysian filtering in it... | | Well, thats not the case here, it does recognize on the order | of 300 messages a day (thank you, thank you), but probably | misses on the order of another 75-100. | | So thats more like 75-80% not 99+%. | | Now the Baysian Filtering is up (I think) and primed. | the dcc stuff is up... | | But HOW DO I TELL IF THESE THINGS ARE REALLY WORKING? | | Is there any way to get any statistics out of SpamAssassin? | | I do see comments about the dcc stuff in the maillog on occasion, | mostly complaints about not being able to get to a specific site, | | but it would be nice | | to know if the Baysian stuff is working at all, | or if it (SpamAssassin) | was having long term problems getting to dcc sites. | | I dont see any 'flags' for any statistics, am I missing something? | Even a script to grep the 'tossed' messages (I save them for a few | days) would be acceptable, but at the moment SpamAssassin is a great | be black box,- it seems to work, but it could be having real problems | and I wouldnt have a clue. | | Well, thats longer than I wanted the message to be, but... | | | -- | Reg.Clemens | [EMAIL PROTECTED] | |
