And... This thread has prompted me to tighten up my anti-spam parameters. Hopefully I'll get a lot less now. If not, then tighten again...-Renegade (September 17, 2012, 09:11 AM)

Be careful with that if it's a server side filter. Never tune a spam filter past 90-95% anything in that range is gold. Attempting to go past that is just going to (cost you ham) FP/break it.

They are server side. But the numbers are all absolute and score based. Things are still getting through though, so it seems ok.
What was pissing me off was the 2 different client-side filters weren't taking out the spam that I'd flagged server-side with "[SPAM]" in the subject line. Like how much of a hint do they need?
Email is just completely broken thanks to spammers.

Anti spam stuff is so broken, even genuine mails these days get into spam folder.

Speaking of spam, anyone had trouble with spam text-messages being sent to your cell #? If so, were you able to make it stop and how?-kyrathaba (September 17, 2012, 07:00 PM)
