So I have a question, what would be the best way to go about starting my 
spamdb database over again from scratch? We are using MySQL as the 
database back end. The reason for this is I am still wrestling with the 
issue of ASSP being too sensitive and I am still getting reports back 
from my users that emails from their customers are getting bounced back 
to them and flagged as spam. Analyzing the emails have turned up that 
the message is flagged as spam even though the message may only contain 
1 or 2 sentences pertaining to Job related information. ASSP got better 
since I restored from a backup from last year, but it's still too 
sensitive and I really need to address this.

I believe I uncovered the issue with the database being too sensitive, 
it's the way the users have been forwarding the messages to the spam 
filter. Some were not sending the emails as an attachment, the emails 
have been sent inline. Most of my customers use Outlook and by default 
Outlook is set to send forwarded emails inline and not as an attachment. 
So for all these years some if not all my users have been submitting 
emails to the spam filter wrong. I am guessing because of this, the 
database now is too sensitive and causing the issues of a lot of false 
positives.

Do I put the spam filter in test mode? How do I remove all previous 
entries out of the spamdb in MySQL? Just delete the database and start 
over? Do I put  DoBayesian in score mode? Currently it's set to block. 
DoHMM is turned off. Our corpus confidence comes out at 1.000000 which I 
know is perfect.

Thank you for any assistance in advance.
