Good for you! Whatever works. Is Mailwasher still bouncing spam, thereby making the spam problem even worse? For your information: MailWasher is a commercial product, made by developers who are paid to make it work. Spambayes on the other hand, can be considered as a sort of hobby project that "some guy" made years ago. He put his work online (for free!) and some other people have added a few bits and pieces to make it work for them. That's it. There is no company backing SpamBayes. The people who made it, don't *have* to improve it. They have no need for a large user base. Most importantly, they have no need to pay attention to people who use the words "must" and "quickly". Be grateful that they shared it as-is. _______________________________________________ SpamBayes@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/spambayes Info/Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/spambayes Check the FAQ before asking: http://spambayes.sf.net/faq.html
