I'm not sure how you'd expect Razor to work better on "marginal spams"...Razor basically is a check against (as well as a reporting process to add to) a database of reported/known spam messages. If the message isn't in the Razor database, Razor won't report it as such, and SpamAssassin won't add the RAZOR2_CHECK score to the message's spam level. If you're sure it's spam, however, you can run it through either "spamassassin -r" or "razor-report" to have it added to the database. ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.NET email is sponsored by: AMD - Your access to the experts on Hammer Technology!
