I B> would say it misses approx 50% of the spam that comes into my mailbox. The first time I tried both BayesIt and BayesFilter, they didn't do much for me. (Apart from getting TB stuck by BayesIt) But somewhere in January I tried the latest BayesIt (available as separate download at the Ritlabs site) and today it caught all of my incoming spam (to be honest, I don't have any outgoing spam). I don't have as much spam as you do, but that's supposed to make it more difficult for these programs. Neither of them gave me ever a false positive and I consider that very important. So when the original BayesIt doesn't do it for you, try the latest. -- Groetjes, Roelof Hi, I'm a tagline. When I grow up I'm gonna be a novel!
