Thanks Erylon In the meantime I read the Settings drop down menu and 
there was a wizard there that took care of adding the proper filters 
and the first message input resulted in 27 spams.  Good show. I was 
aware of the cf.rules but for now I want to monitor and check the 
rejects.  My spam load is very low: Ham=4105 Spam=981 about 24%.
