Hi; What I have found working the best was:
1: Add as many of the tests as you want with 0 weight. 2: Add a header for every test 3: Monitor your headers and adjust the weights accordingly. 4: After several months start taking out the tests that their weight has stayed 0. This is a lengthy process but as Scott said this is not a one size fits all... We still adjust our weights after all this time and just fine tune them. It has been discussed here over and over again and of course it is one of Declude's strengths that allows you to not base your final decision based on a single test. What we find the tests most useful is with brand new spams we get since on the average our weighing makes sure if something fails 4-5 tests they get into a holding weight. Of course if we see a new spam its content will be marked and it no longer needs any external weight to trap it. Just some thoughts...

All I have seen is listings. The problem is that it is very, very difficult to determine the key piece of information: false positive ratios. Most of the information that people have about the DNS-based spam tests are things like "It works really well for me as a small business" or "As an ISP I find that I can't use it, it has more false positives than I want" -- neither of which provides enough information to decide whether or not you should use it. -Scott --- Declude JunkMail: The advanced anti-spam solution for IMail mailservers.
