I've been running Razor in test mode here on my personal mail
account for about 5 weeks.  To date the false positive rate is about
8%.  That's far too high for deployment as a system service.  It
also has a very high false negative rate (worse than any of the
other's I'm testing).

SpamAssassion conversely has a false positive rate (over the same
period) of 3 messages out of 93,648 (yes, I get a lot of mail at
home).
