Hmm, then I have been doing something bad for YEARS ( >3 ) now. I have
manually moved files around the corpus dirs since day one of running
ASSP. Now granted I know it's better to report to the email interface.
This is stuff that never made it to anyones in box.

Sure I could setup an account and have all spam go to that and then wade
through that. But that would be inefficient for me IMHO. Instead I wrote
a small app, ASSPR that gives me a summary report of all bad corpus
activity or for a given period, usually that day. Then once a day log
into the server and move emails around if need be.

I myself have never used move2num. In the past my actions have never
been a problem. Haven't seemed to effect Bayesian filter or
effectiveness. But with recent changes, could be causing problems that
did not exist before. Not sure there.
