Do you need to run sa-update?

What do the hits look like on the spam getting through?

What kinds of spam are they, anything in common?

Agreed.

How did you upgrade?

What version did you upgrade from?

Where did you get 3.1.17 from? :)


With little more than I upgraded from some older version to the newest 
version and I'm now unhappy with the results there's not much to offer.


If I had to guess, and I have to, I'd say that (assuming the install 
didn't get messed up) you're probably running without network tests now.

How did you upgrade?


Via the freebsd ports collection


What version did you upgrade from?


3.1.5


Where did you get 3.1.17 from? :)


That would be a typo.  I meant 3.1.7, not 3.1.17.  Must have had a 
finger malfunction.  ;)

What do the hits look like on the spam getting through?


I'm seeing a wide variety of different hits.  Nothing in 
common.  I'm also seeing ham scores on obvious spam.  Is this bayes 
poisoning and if so, how do I reset bayes to clear that?



What kinds of spam are they, anything in common?


They all look pretty random.  Some stock spam, pump and dumps, 
image spam, etc.
