Its getting clearer - but I'm still a bit confused.  According to the docs
(and the ASSP web interface), the redlist is a list of email addresses which
cannot add to the spam/nospam list.  But, looking at the redre.txt file it
is clearly a bunch of regex expressions.  So my questions are:

1.  Does a match from the redre.txt file cause the message to be
blocked/accepted?  If neither, why is it even showing up in the log?  (Or is
this just an FYI)

2.  What should I put in the redlist?  Should I be trying to match text in
the headers of the various usenet groups/lists I subscribe too?  And/or,
should I add email addresses of users who should not add to the spam/nospam
list?

Thanks,
MD

1. Regex:Red means that the message was matched against the Regular
Expression (RegEx) you have in your "Expression to Identify Redlisted Mail*"
section.

2. Its considered Bayesian spam, so your system needs to be taught that it
incorrectly analysed the message by sending it to your Not Spam email
interface. So yes, sending to your assp-notspam would be the right thing to
do. 

Others may suggest you configure your mailing lists to be checked
differently (or not checked at all) from 'normal' email. I don't have a
problem with my users/mail lists so I haven't had reason to look into that
yet.
