Well, gee... let's think about this... ummm... /Of course not/??!!
Not that i should have to explain this more, but in my testing so far,
only around 3-5%% of spam (this is about 1 or two hundred a day for this
particular site) is getting tagged at under 11. It's the classic spam
dillemma - the site wants /all/ their email, but /no spam/, and /nothing
lost/... Go figure. Again, this is just temporary, until the filter is
tuned closer to what is needed... obviously, I /don't/ want to flood the
net with worthless bounces... Trust me, i'm not an idiot. (I just stink
at Perl!)... I just need this for a few days to finish up filter tuning...
thanks again
