This typoically leads to a lot of false positives if you have a typical SA setup. If you have most extensions disabled, then 3.0 may be "fitting", but then SA could not recognize spam well, because it has not much facts to decide / value a email.
SA default is 5.0 which is a good value for "typical" personal usage. 2.5-3.0 is more typical for greylisting or similiar more "soft" limits. Typcial values in multi-user environments are around 5.0-7.0, while every 0.1 is important. If you go under 5.0 you (very) propably will loose some ham. On a machine with around 200.000 SMTP sessions per day i tweaked the score over monthes in a range of 0.4 to find working results. With further own extensions (or score "additions" in EXIM) the score could rise further - so even a bit higher values may required. hth a bit, best regards, niels. -- --- Niels Dettenbach Syndicat IT & Internet http://www.syndicat.com PGP: https://syndicat.com/pub_key.asc --- -- ## List details at https://lists.exim.org/mailman/listinfo/exim-users ## Exim details at http://www.exim.org/ ## Please use the Wiki with this list - http://wiki.exim.org/
