Perhaps this information will be of some benefit.
On 12/22/2001 we began keeping track of the number of messages we held
as SPAM and then the ones we had to move back to the queue because we
determined they were desired after inspection.
We weight SPAMCOP at 10 and the others are mol default.
We set WEIGHT10 at 15 and WEIGHT09 AT 14
Hold for WEIGHT10, ORDB, OSDUL, PERCENT, ROUTING, ADULT, PROBES
Results since 12/22/2001:
----------------------------------------------
Year - Mo Moved Pct Deleted Pct Total
2001 - 12 64 3.92% 1,567 96.08% 1,631
2002 - 01 212 4.01% 5,078 95.99% 5,290
----------------------------------------------
276 4.16% 6,635 95.84% 6,921
We average about 2,000 incoming messages per day.
We started this to further refine our settings. Unfortunately the
messages that we've had to move have generally failed multiple tests
with pretty high total weight numbers. In every case though a quick
inspection easily told us the messages were wanted. If there is a
programmatic method to further refine these numbers its solution is
not readily apparent to me.
