I don't think I can say for sure there more False Negatives.
The only difference between them is that two uses (the large)
bigevil.cf and one SURBL. All the other rules are similar on the
machines. Each one has it's own bayesian database and autolearning
and auto_whitelisting is switched off. SA-learn receives the same
messages on all three. For the past 24 hours the average number of
spam blocked and valid emails on those machines per minute was:
spam ham
1 - 7.90 16.69
2 - 6.63 18.00
3 - 6.96 20.84
Number 2 is using SURBL.
