Hi, I've slowly started rolling out ASSP to my users with some basic instructions on how to report spam, nospam, etc. I prepopulated the spamdb with 3-4 months of valid had/spam and the bayesian filter has been doing a seemingly decent job differentiating the two. Currently, I am still running in full test mode, with a Spam header being applied to spam emails. But one user asked me a very valid question, to which I was entirely stumped.
When he receives and email marked as spam that is not supposed to be spam, how does he know whether to report/send it to IsNotSpam or rather to IsWhiteList? Chances are that if it is a valid email then shouldn't it be whitelisted? Under what conditions sould someone report a false-positive as IsNotSpam instead of IsWhitelist? Or vice versa - when should one report it as IsWhiteList instead of IsNoSpam? Like I said, I was at a loss for explanation, so I'm hoping someone can give me a good explanation that I can forward along.... Thanks!
