Hi Pete,

Here is my setup.

I still have SpamAssassin running, for two reasons.

1. It allows my users to submit False Positives, False Negatives, and
Whitelisted address'. By using the built-in email address' that Mdaemon
provides for those. I then setup rules in the Mdaemon Content Filter to then
forward those to the appropriate SortMonster address'.

2. It can block obvious spam in the SMTP session before it even comes in.

I also have Spam Assassin setup to use the Message Sniffer Results.

As far as my updating of the Rule Base. I setup a Content Filter Rule to
scan incoming mail for the Update Notification. Listed Below.

[Rule007]
RuleName=Update Message Sniffer Rules
Enable=Yes
ThisRuleCondition=All
ProcessQueue=BOTH
Condition01=SUBJECT|contains|AND|vXXXXXXX.snf Update|
Action01=run a program|"-1,0,1","cmd.exe /C
C:\MDaemon\MessageSniffer\snfupd.cmd"
Action02=stop processing| 

The snfupd.cmd is setup pretty much like the example you include with the
plugin

I setup two Content Filter rules to forward the False Positive and False
Negatives to Sort Monster. Listed Below

[Rule001]
RuleName=Forward Ham Learn to Message Sniffer
Enable=Yes
ThisRuleCondition=All
ProcessQueue=BOTH
Condition01=TO|contains|AND|[EMAIL PROTECTED]|
Action01=remove header|"Subject",""
Action02=add header|"Subject","False Positive Report - license vXXXXXXX"
Action03=remove header|"From",""
Action04=add header|"From","[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
Action05=copy to|"[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
Action06=stop processing|

[Rule002]
RuleName=Forward Spam Learn to Message Sniffer
Enable=Yes
ThisRuleCondition=All
ProcessQueue=BOTH
Condition01=TO|contains|AND|[EMAIL PROTECTED]|
Action01=remove header|"From",""
Action02=add header|"From","[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
Action03=copy to|"[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
Action04=stop processing|


HTH,
Daniel
