I was playing devil's advocate back there. But for the record, I primarily use razor as a fallback in case my other filters (blacklist, bayesian) miss something. There aren't many "leftovers" by that point, and razor doesn't get many of them but it does help. I got involved in this discussion once before, many moons ago. ;) I was convinced then and stopped doing automated submissions. I find it interesting that the discussion has really never ended since then. I think it demonstrates my original point that users, ultimately, will use a piece of software the way _they_ want to use it to help them accomplish what they want to accomplish. -- Edward Hennis ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ http://www.vaxer.net/~eah Rich Cook: "Programming today is a race between software engineers striving to build bigger and better idiot-proof programs, and the Universe trying to produce bigger and better idiots.
