It depends a great deal on the character of your mail traffic. Your mail log should have information about which rules hit on each message. Find those messages where MSGID_SPAM_LETTERS hit, and see if they are near to the threshold. If it looks like more hams are near the threshold than spams, then this may not be the rule to adjust. If the hams that this rule hits are not scoring near the threshold, then increasing the score may show some benefit. -- John Hardin KA7OHZ ICQ#15735746 http://www.impsec.org/~jhardin/ [EMAIL PROTECTED] FALaholic #11174 pgpk -a [EMAIL PROTECTED] key: 0xB8732E79 - 2D8C 34F4 6411 F507 136C AF76 D822 E6E6 B873 2E79 ----------------------------------------------------------------------- ...the Fates notice those who buy chainsaws... -- www.darwinawards.com ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Tomorrow: Halloween
