So as advertised, I de-activated all my TB! filters even though I understand BayesIT filters are supposed to do their work before the TB! filters. So, tonight I have 376 msgs in my junk folder. I marked none of them as junk, i.e. they were all junked automatically -- presumably by BayesIT. So here are my stats Spam Stats, last 24 hours (BayesIt! 0.5.11) Total Spam Emails: 5 Total Clean Emails: 155 BayesIT guessed right 99.4% of the time My email is 3.125% spam Anyone have any ideas beyond the notion that the macros don't work. Or put it another way, has anyone found that the macros do work & represent some real numbers?
