As I wrote before, you particularly need to train spam with a low-ish Bayes confidence, regardless of the overall SA score or the number of rules hit. This does need some supervision. One way to help this would be to set up some (server-side) rules to deliver all spam triggering BAYES_80 or lower into a dedicated folder. Sort by Subject, and go through the list. If the Subject alone isn't sufficient evidence, have a quick look at the mail. Confirmed spam then can be learned. -- char *t="\10pse\0r\0dtu...@ghno\x4e\xc8\x79\xf4\xab\x51\x8a\x10\xf4\xf4\xc4"; main(){ char h,m=h=*t++,*x=t+2*h,c,i,l=*x,s=0; for (i=0;i<l;i++){ i%8? c<<=1: (c=*++x); c&128 && (s+=h); if (!(h>>=1)||!t[s+h]){ putchar(t[s]);h=m;s=0; }}}
