 Greg,

 we have been using SpamCheck for about 1 1/2 months now and have had
No
 problems with it.

 Pros
 1. Easy to Install
 2. Support has been good
 3. Highly flexible
 4. Catches a lot of spam that passes DNS and RFC tests
 5. Allows you to give emails + or - weights
 6. Cost $0

 Cons
 1. Config files can require a good deal of time and customization for your
 needs
 2. I understand CPU utilization can be high - but they are working on
that.
 3. Its Beta(?) software so you take it As Is(Correct me if wrong on this
 anyone)
 4. Did I mention it takes some time to get the config files setup  :)

 I have not looked at any of the other external testing programs so I
 cannot say how it compares.

 For us SpamCheck has been Great.

  What is your opinion of Spamchk? How well does it work with Declude and
 have
  you seen any issues with using?

  It just seems like that recently the spam we've been getting is clean.
  Which
  makes it hard for declude to block it when it passes all of the rules.
 
  That's because companies that feel that they are legitimate E-mailers
 (ones
  that technically *do* have your permission to send the mail!) are the
ones
  that are very likely to have everything in order.  Their mail isn't
likely
  to have header problems, DNS problems, anti-filter devices, etc.
 
  For this type of spam, the best answer is often a content filtering
 program
  (such as Message Sniffer or Alligate) that can work in conjunction with
  Declude, which is better able to catch this type of spam.  But, note
that
  there's a fine line here in determining what is spam and what is not.

makes it hard for declude to block it when it passes all of the rules.

That's because companies that feel that they are legitimate E-mailers (ones
that technically *do* have your permission to send the mail!) are the ones
that are very likely to have everything in order.  Their mail isn't likely
to have header problems, DNS problems, anti-filter devices, etc.

For this type of spam, the best answer is often a content filtering program
(such as Message Sniffer or Alligate) that can work in conjunction with
Declude, which is better able to catch this type of spam.  But, note that
there's a fine line here in determining what is spam and what is not.

Re: [Declude.JunkMail]Review of Spamchk - was More and more email getting past Declude

2003-09-02 Thread Todd - Smart Mail
Greg,

we have been using SpamCheck for about 1 1/2 months now and have had  No
problems with it.

Pros
1. Easy to Install
2. Support has been good
3. Highly flexible
4. Catches a lot of spam that passes DNS and RFC tests
5. Allows you to give emails + or - weights
6. Cost $0

Cons
1. Config files can require a good deal of time and customization for your
needs
2. I understand CPU utilization can be high - but they are working on that.
3. Its Beta(?) software so you take it As Is(Correct me if wrong on this
anyone)
4. Did I mention it takes some time to get the config files setup  :)

I have not looked at any of the other external testing programs so I
cannot say how it compares.

For us SpamCheck has been Great.

 It just seems like that recently the spam we've been getting is clean.
