Some people need to start editing their Subject lines and remove the spamassassin "junkmail" tag. Having the tag in the header could easily have some people's Bayes filters raising the spam score. As for how it got started...hey, just the caps "[SLE]" in the header adds to the statistical chance of it getting marked spam...CAPS in the header...then with HOWTO also all caps in the header....double "Re:" might get flagged as "weird". Anyway -- maybe the discussion on it being spam should goto the "spamassassin-talk@lists.sourceforge.net" list and the SuSE related questions about the HOWTO could go to the suse-linus-e@suse.com list? I know I missed the original post that started this, and I can't find it in my SuSE-Linux folder (likely because it expired/was too old). The earliest post I found had this in it:
...
http://en.tldp.org/HOWTO/SMB-HOWTO.html was last updated
April 2000,
....
and asked about updating the "howto" from V2 to V3 I don't know what you were looking for, exactly, but samba documentation is on the samba.org site. The doc index is at http://us4.samba.org/samba/docs/man/ . There is also an official V3 HOWTO listed on the index page located at http://us4.samba.org/samba/docs/man/Samba-HOWTO-Collection/index.html . Perhaps this answers the original question -- though I might point out that questions about Samba Howto's from "en.tldp.org" don't exactly sound like a SuSE related question. FYI, there are specific Samba related discussion groups listed at http://lists.samba.org/mailman/ with archives at http://us4.samba.org/samba/archives.html . From my perspective, I don't like having to fish SuSE postings out of my Spam folder and make sure they end up in my "despam" folder so when I run sa-learn to teach SA what is spam/ham, it doesn't start thinking that SuSE posts are spam...SA is dumb enough as it is -- it seems to classify alot moreemail as spam than Thunderbird's own spam marker, though it might be simply a case that SA errs on side of false positives while Tbird err's on side of false negatives... In any event -- please _try_ to get the subject's a bit more like "right", so as not to confuse silly sorting rules that look for SA-tags in the Subject field to decide if something has been marked as Spam by SA. I normally wouldn't think that something with "***SPAM***" in the header would be a normal non-spam discussion especially if I was a dumb computer filter that just separates out SA tagged spam into a Spam folder... ;-) Hope any of this helps -- and doesn't offend...not meant to be offensive, merely clarifying....

they have already marked you as an exception.
My mother often said I was exceptional. ;-)
Incidentally, I see the spam heading also.
