pine

Hi janina,

Do you mean it captures 10 to 12 spam messages a day, or that those are the
ones it misses?

Take care,
Sina

spamassassin is a great anti-spam bot. Only real downside, is that you do
have to receive the spam locally before spamassassin can dispose of it, but
it does work well. I see only about 10-12 spams a day, and I get several
hundred emails a day.

My spamassassin is configured to throw spam into its own mail folder,
premarked for deletion. Ocassionally, I go in there and look to see if some
message was put there erroneously. I haven't found any errors in the past
months, and I'm always amazed at how many messages are there, when I do
look. And, when I leave the folder, they're all gone, because they've
already been marked for deletion, and my ua is set to delete on folder exit.
