Re: [Declude.JunkMail] Feature request MINWEIGHTTOFAIL

Yes. As the filter matches more lines, I want more weight as it is more likely to be a 419 spam.   Now the lines themselves aren't spammy (million dollars) so I can't weight each line much if at all. ----- Original Message ----- From: Nick Hayer To: Declude.JunkMail@declude.com Sent: Monday, March 27, 2006 2:44 PM Subject: Re: [Declude.JunkMail] Feature request MINWEIGHTTOFAIL Hi Scott - I do not quite understand - you could score  each line [hit] with the filter protected with a minweight to fail [to protect against false positives ] and if necessary to contain the filter from  overpowering the scoring a maxweight to cap. The filter only runs once and will accumulate a total past the minweighttofail if the data supports it. Are you saying instead  if it scores "7" punish the email with more weight eg: scores 7 weight is 10 scores 8 weight is 12 etc? -Nick Scott Fisher wrote: I'd like to see some kind of sliding scale to expand the MINWEIGHTTOFAIL processing. I currently use a MINWEIGHTTOFAIL 4 to apply weight to 419 scams. For me a MINWEIGHTTOFAIL 4 is the bottom end, and I'd like to not put on an overpowering weight because of false positive potential. I'd certainly like to apply even more weight if this failed 7 lines and even more for 10 lines. I can't see a way of doing this short of runing the filter multiple times, and it is pretty body filter heavy. ----------------------------------------------------- Scott Fisher Director of IT Farm Progress Companies 191 S Gary Ave Carol Stream, IL 60188 630-462-2323   This email message, including any attachments, is for the sole use of the intended recipient(s) and may contain confidential and privileged information.
