[sniffer] Re: Increase spam

[Jim Matuska Jr.]

I myself am seeing an increase in spam making it through although at the same time I am seeing an increase in caught spam as well, so I think sniffer seems to be catching spam ok but there appears to be just more spam in general it has to deal with and thus a few more slipping through.  Most of the new caught spam seems to be mainly from the experimental class so I definitely would recommend looking at raising the weight of that test if you can.  Personally I see very few false positives on any of the sniffer tests, I have the really accurate ones to delete automatically with just one sniffer return code and the experimental and similar tests set to hold for 7 days in users spam folder after which they are automatically deleted.  We have about a 92%+ spam vs 8%+- legitimate email rate, really scary when you think about most of your email being junk.    Jim Matuska Jr. Computer Tech2, CCNA Nez Perce Tribe Information Systems [EMAIL PROTECTED]   From: Message Sniffer Community [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Filippo Palmili Sent: Wednesday, October 18, 2006 8:45 AM To: Message Sniffer Community Subject: [sniffer] Increase spam   What's going on with the Sniffer settings? In last days I'm receiving so many spam mails, it looks like the Sniffer is not working. Please advise Thanks Filippo
