The problem is that everyone's config files are designed and built around
their experiences and situation. For example, most of our users are business
and one major client deals with a lot of overseas companies. Therefore I
have had to tailor rules and lists to accommodate that. 

Others are more of ISP whereby they have a lot of individual users where
others are in a corporate environment where they can have strict rules.

If you really think your config files are that out of date, what I would
recommend is create a new set of files in a different folder with all the
appropriate test files and such. Spend time reading the archives about
different tests if you have the time.

Currently, there are a few excellent external tests for Declude; Sniffer,
SpamManager and SpamCheck. There are also a number of Declude users that
share their fromfiles and filterfiles.

I would recommend downloading the current configuration files from the
Declude site and then get at least one of the external test programs and
then incorporate some of the other user's files.

I would then only take action on weights, and start out very conservative.
This will mean a lot of reviewing held e-mails (made easier with a program
called SpamReview) to start the fine tuning process.

I you would like direct help, feel free to contact me off list.
