No. Sorry, that's why we get paid the big bucks. On my own server I've seen legitimate mail score as high as 12 on SpamAssassin (foreign source, from a gal named Oralia, message consisted entirely of pictures) that could have cost us $50k if it had been undelivered. Also, bear in mind that if somebody wants to alert you to a compromised account by sending you an example of spam relayed through your server, the forwarded spam may well qualify as "obvious spam." -- Dave Pooser Cat-Herder-in-Chief, Pooserville.com "NOTHING says love like a monkey.
