An example then- I get lots of emails of people trying to sell me illegal copies of software for eg Office XP for $50 or Adobe PDF creator software for $30 or Macromedia suite for $30 etc. This stuff is spam and rightly ends up in the spam directory and give a high spam value in spamdb. I also get lots of email from people like internet.com or CNet with news about IT stuff. These are just informational, I don't ever reply to these (so they don't end up on the whitelist) or forwards them to other people here (so they aren't local). As their email ends up in MailOK they don't participate in the spamdb scoring. So then Adobe brought Macromedia. All the legitimate email I got from the news people ended up being marked as spam as they had enough spam words to push them over the limit.
