I've read thats other tokinzier are better, why it's not possiblie to migrate the data from one tokinzier to another? It's a problem how dspam create this token - it's only one way? > 3 years of data is all fine and okay but to be honest you will not loose > much.

Or what do you think how long it takes with this low volume? E.g. one user has only 700 Ham but 1500Spam (accurance 91.40% - she loves dspam :)). > >> any other pitfalls? >> > Not really. > Very good news. > >> I use dspam with mysql as backend and without groups. >> > If you have many users then using groups could help to shorten training > time. > Only 5 user with very different mails. My old solution was a single user spamfilter which result in very very bad accurance. I've found dspam an surprised how well it works (200 or 300 mails and it rocks)! The learning with forwarding was a other big hit, beause we use pop3 and how should we train the filter which run on a gateway? > >> Kind Regards >> > Gruss > >> Sebastian >> > Steve > > Sebastian ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Let Crystal Reports handle the reporting - Free Crystal Reports 2008 30-Day trial.
