Because I would think if the email is in the spam folder and I reported it as not spam but it still exists when the database is rebuilt... it would still be seen as spam... or is there where the error directory comes in? >> If I go off test-mode, is the spam blocked from the server? >> >> > > If test-mode is off, and no other "allowances" apply (e.g. spamlover, > redlist, noprocessing, other test-modes), yes.

Even if I tested for weeks, I sure an email would slip into the spam void every once in awhile after I went off testmode. Yes, I realize I could leave that on so it doesn't, but my question is, don't YOU worry about a missed email. Is the general consensus that after good training, it operates pretty flawlessly? I ask because I really am thinking of leaving it in test mode so I don't miss an email. >> If it is blocked, doesn't that make the spam folder irrelevant? >> > > Blocked from delivery to the MTA and cached to the spam corpus folder > are two different functions.

So even though a spam email isn't passed to the MTA, it will still go into the folder to maintain a good spam filter.
