Thanks for the heads up, Pete. I use MessageSniffer as part of a weighting system with Declude.
I had 69 total hits on Monday and Tuesday for these two rule IDs. Of those I had: 27 being Deleted as very spammy 4 being Passed as very hammy ---- 31 total not held Of the 38 that were held, which I requeued today 8 now Deleted as very spammy 11 now Passed as false positives 19 now Held again ---- 38 ==== 69 total message hits on both rule IDs So, out of 69 hits, I had 15 that were false positives (or spam leakage), 27 where MessageSniffer was ahead of most of the blacklists, and 8 where the blacklists subsequently caught up with MessageSniffer and a remaining 18 where spam is just spam.
