Will do. I did try this yesterday, and it seemed okay, but to be fair I am new to interrogating SA, so I will try again and seek the Lists help. >> Or put another way, do I need to feed the bayes db a minimum of 200 in >> one hit from the get go (as opposed to being drip fed)? > > hmm, my englich sux a bit, so i might get you wrong. but, it doesnt > count, when or how many spam/ham bayes learns at a time. the fact is, > you need 200 of each, otherwise (below 200) spamd skips these test. > but spamd learns ham / spam meanwhile, if bayes_auto_learn is set to 1 > (done per default), even if bayes itself is not used for tests yet. Nothing wrong with your English....heck, I don't even have a 2nd lang (shame on me)! I will save up 200 hams and spams (minimum), then sa-learn again. Thanks for your time. -- Regards, Roland
