The other night I was fumbling through the internet looking for info on spamassassin. I came across something somewhere that talked about the user emailing spam, which spamassassin missed, to a spam server so that spamassassin could use the learning feature. It was something like spamserver@blah.blah. Bascially, if I get an email which was spam and I have spamassassin setup on my mail server, I could forward that email to the spamserver (or something like that) for it to learn. This would be lieu of saving the message, coping it to the server, then running sa-learn..... The other upside is that individual users can forward this email. Again, I just briefly saw it and can't remember where. Anyone have the foggest idea on what I'm talking about? Thanks, Tom -- Tom Nielsen Neuro Logic Systems 805.389.5435 x18 www.neuro-logic.com

If you don't know yourself, Tom, I'm not sure we can help you! :-)
Actually, the reason why I send email here is because I don't know the answer. Matter of fact, most people that send emails to this group don't have answers....which is why we post emails. My hope is that someone, somewhere, has come across this type of setup and might be able to say, "Hey, I have that setup on my system. You need....."

Maybe this is what you're looking for? FX What is Vipul's Razor? Vipul's Razor is a distributed, collaborative, spam detection and filtering network. Through user contribution, Razor establishes a distributed and constantly updating catalogue of spam in propagation that is consulted by email clients to filter out known spam. Detection is done with statistical and randomized signatures that efficiently spot mutating spam content. User input is validated through reputation assignments based on consensus on report and revoke assertions which in turn is used for computing confidence values associated with individual signatures. http://razor.sourceforge.net/ -- ______________________ Courtesy of SuSE Linux http://www.nibz.org

Thanks, I'll look into it. Tom On Thu, 2003-09-18 at 15:20, FX Fraipont wrote:

Hello, Are you talking about the auto-whitelist feature? - that's preferable, IMO, because it allows individual users to allow specific senders to send mail. Andy On Thursday 18 September 2003 20:51, Tom Nielsen wrote:
