Hi Chris, Thanks for your detailed information.
We never let the clients decide what is spam or not. If somebody receives a mail, which might be spam, this person would forward it to me for further analysis. Some people are to lazy to unsubcribe from a regular newsletter, so they declare it as spam, which is wrong and not fair. The main thing i'm looking for is a "real" RegEx-engine which ASSP has. Also the greylisting might be interesting. ============================================ Am Mittwoch, 21.
