Thanks, Magnus, I forgot about fakereject. Actually, the most compelling usecase for this feature is to fakereject all of your high-scoring spam, but deliver it not to the quarantine, but instead to your spam corpus archive. That lets you do post-facto analysis on your spam filtering performance, and makes it easy to determine how new rules or score changes would impact that performance. - Marc -- ## List details at http://lists.exim.org/mailman/listinfo/exim-users ## Exim details at http://www.exim.org/ ## Please use the Wiki with this list - http://www.exim.org/eximwiki/
