[Mimedefang] Anyone seeing sneaky spam?

[Whatley, Lee (CBA)]

I haven't yet.  The only spam I get that slips past SA is stuff that is 
text only with bodies so short that there is just not enough content to 
get it a score higher than about 2.  If I set my threshold that low I 
would generate waaay too many false positives.  I imagine that setting 
up the bayseian filtering would help me with this though.

What types of things are getting put in that generate the negative 
scores?  If it is header information couldn't MIMEDefang make sure this 
is stripped out before SA gets ahold of it?
