Are there any end users who are using the VAMSOFT IMAGE SPAM AGENT tht would like to comment on it's effectiveness / processor utilization?
it seems to not use much cpu; its effectiveness is ok. In case you are unaware it does not ocr the email, it just works on probability - like a combo filter eg: It returns a value based on its confidence level and I score accordingly.

Below is how I have it config'ed

    *_Declude and Image based spam - 4 methods

    _1. COMMTOUCH*

    Commtouch Recurrent Pattern Detection contains an intrinsic
    mechanism to exact-match recurrent patterns across similar but
    not-identical messages. However in the case of images, the minute
    the spammer makes even the smallest changes to an image, the
    image-encoded data appears completely different. Commtouch
    identified this trend in the earliest days of image-based spam,
    and made the necessary enhancements to its detection engine in
    order to defend against this new threat with a sophisticated
    protection shield. Commtouch invested significant resources into
    developing a method for decoding the images and then sampling them
    using the proven RPD approach. The result is a significantly
    improved spam detection rate, while maintaining the same low
    false-positive rate.

    *2. CLAMWIN*

    Using ClamAV as a virus scanner with Declude you can download the
    MSRBL-Images.hdb file which has additional signatures (MD5 sigs)
    which contains signatures created from images contained within
    spam emails. http://www.msrbl.com/site/msrblimagesdownload

    *3. FILTER-CID*

    Identifies emails which contains images increasing the weight
    suffeciently on spam messages to reach the spam threshold.

    #EXCEPTIONS
    BODY        END    NOTCONTAINS    cid:
    BODY        END    NOTCONTAINS    Content-Type: image/

    #IMAGES
    BODY    3    CONTAINS    src=3D"cid:
    BODY    3    CONTAINS    src="cid:
    BODY    3    CONTAINS    src='cid:

    BODY    3    CONTAINS    img src="cid:
    BODY    3    CONTAINS    img src=3Dcid:

    BODY    3    CONTAINS    /cid:

    #IMAGE TYPES
    BODY    2    CONTAINS    Content-Type: image/gif;
    BODY    2    CONTAINS    Content-Type: image/jpeg;

    *4. VAMSOFT IMAGE SPAM AGENT*

    This tool is an External Agent for ORF 2.1 and newer versions that
    improves ORF by image spam detection capabilities, but can be used
    by Declude. http://www.vamsoft.com/vsimagespam/vsimagespam.zip

    Has there been a declude filter created for blocking or
    identifying image spam? If so can somebody post it for me to try.

    Thank You,
