I tried to do this, but I can't make it work properly. I made 6 rules like, all of type "(*) Email". The first rule has: AllText pattern = X-Spam-Level: ****************************** Score Value = 30 And so on, until the last rule which has 1 * and a score of 1. I named my rules SA30, SA20, SA10, SA5, SA3, SA1 I also added score to my index, but the index of my spamfolder ended up looking like this: N 104 0 Jul 29 Έ¶ΔΙΕΝ (6K) subj N 105 69 Jul 29 Suarez (18K) subj N 106 0 Jul 30 hermila nelson (6K) subj N 107 39 Jul 30 Freda Fair (5K) subj (destroyed the subjs to avoid ending up in your spamfilter) Index is set to: STATUS MSGNO SCORE(3) DATE FROMORTO(33%) SIZENARROW SUBJECT(67%) Those with 0 actually have 10-20 *'s, and I can't imagine how those scores of 69 and 39 got there (not even if you sum up my rules would you get anything ending with 9). Btw, for my non-spam folders, this seems to work (they basically show a score of 0 or 1 in the index (I have threshold of 3), which corresponds perfectly). Only my spamfolder (where this is of most interest, to catch false positives) doesn't work. -Frank.
