My question was more related to why this stuff is  getting through now, when it used to get blocked. I'm guessing your using 'junkmail/notjunkmail' accounts on the server where everybody is sending their SPAM (junkmail) and HAM (notjunkmail) to. Is it possible that some people may be making an error and sending SPAM to the 'notjunkmail' account? You might want to keep an eye on that.  If you've employed another method of training disregard this post or better yet describe your training method so that we can see if the problem does lie there.  I believe not training it with HAM can also be detrimental, especially during it's initial training. It needs to have at least 200 HAM messages for the bayes filter to be accurate. -- Gino Cerullo Pixel Point Studios 21 Chesham Drive Toronto, ON  M3M 1W6 T: 416-247-7740 F: 416-247-7503
