We don't have anything that elaborate... just a folder on the exchange
server for users to drop spam into. I take a quick look at the subject
lines, and report it to our bayes DB and razor at the same time. I can't
think of any reason that most SA admins wouldn't be doing the same.
Most of what is missed by SA and Razor is put into this folder, and I report
it to razor. It's a pretty effective way of doing things. Also, any FPs are
put into a separate folder and are revoked. It doesn't take much work to
implement this, especially for SA admins, because we are used to training
the bayes DB manually (or at least we SHOULD be)
One weakness I see to this approach is that mail that is missed by razor,
but caught by SA doesn't get reported. At least not by me... Maybe the
people who are doing fully automated reporting are helping to report the
others?
Anyways.... that's my two cents.
