Does one of you long time TB users have reasons for or BR> against using either of those two plugins? I used BayesIt for a long time. On the plus side, BayesIt was the only filter I used that never gave me a false positive, something that I weigh pretty highly. But, as someone else mentioned, it takes a lot of mail to train it (I used to keep a couple thousand spam and ham messages around for those time when I had to retrain it <g>) My other complaint was that it tended to 'get lost' as to what was spam over time and I would have to dump the training base and re-train (hence the large training sample <wink>) It worked ... OK for me, but I have moved on to Agava's anti-spam for TB. TB is more stable with it installed and it learns pretty quickly. But it is not free. But it is pretty affordable, less than $20 when I last looked. -- Best regards, MikeD mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Using The Bat! v3.95.4 on Windows XP 5.1 Build 2600 Service Pack 2 ________________________________________________________ Current beta is 3.95.05 | 'Using TBBETA' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html IMPORTANT: To register as a Beta tester, use this link first - http://www.ritlabs.com/en/partners/testers/
