David, I missed your earlier request. I Just switched from PopFile to SpamBayes ( http://spambayes.sourceforge.net/ ). It's been kind of a pain to set up--for me, at least--but I finally got it working today and it has great possibilities. The thing that I like about it is that it doesn't just have the Spam and Ham (or nonspam) categories of PopFile, but it has a third: Unsure. I don't get a lot of spam, but with PopFile, after 3 months I was still getting false positives dumped into my Spam folder, so I was still checking it regular--defeating the whole purpose of the filter. Presumably, after a little training (and I got a good start with about 250 spam messages I'd collected previously), I will only need to occasionally check my Unsure folder, and VERY rarely my Spam folder. -- Keith Using The Bat! 2.00 under Windows XP 5.1 Build 2600 on a 2.4 GHZ Pentium IV with 512 MB. ________________________________________________ Current version is 2.00.6 | "Using TBUDL" information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
