BTW, if you can afford it, I would encourage you to use the razor functions if possible to report spam back to the razor network. The more people that contribute to this, the more effective it becomes at blocking spam.
But can you make a case that razor does anything of value? My observation is that razor misses way more spam than spamassassin (even spamassassin configured WITHOUT razor). So This has lead me to the conclusion that razor is something of a leache on the fine work of bays analysis and other spamassassin hits catches. Originally Vipul explicitly asked that no automated submissions of spam be fed to razor. He backed off of that for some reason, and now people are feeding razor with all the spam caught by bays and spamassassin. Yet in spite of this razor catches only about %15 of the spam. You are far better off training your bays filters than spending any effort training razor, because two years of training and its still far behind. -- _____________________________________ John Andersen
