I don't know about you, but we get somewhere between 350-500 d* files in the spam folder a day. The first couple days of implementing holds was laborious to say the least. Inspired by Declude's spamtrap web page, I wrote a really rough perl script (my facility with perl is pretty limited, to say the least) that would parse the declude log file into a tab delimited format that I could import into Excel and sort accordingly. It doesn't work perfectly but it certainly helps ease the burden. It still represents a significant labor overhead, however. Instead of holding messages, we're thinking of just tagging them and having the users filter them out...

We have just started holding the email that fails the spamcop test and I want to check to be sure I am not catching legitimate email.
