Thanks very much, Tony. I now realize that. My spam and ham mails are moved to separate mboxes and trained using sb_mboxtrain.py. The mails are allowed to accumulated over time and I did the training at the end of the day's work. I recalled I got over a thousand of each and hammie.db grew to about 11 Mb. Perhaps I overtrained. -( Regards, ST -- _______________________________________________ [email protected] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/spambayes Check the FAQ before asking: http://spambayes.sf.net/faq.html
