However, I also have: - an ISP that runs grey-listing that I have enabled - a private SA rule that adds points for unknown user names - a quarantine system that holds spam for 7 days before deleting it and that lists quarantined messages and stats as part of the daily logwatch report. ... so the very small amount of misclassified spam isn't lost.
