BTW I recently installed bogofilter and found that it is a very nice and
works well. Where Spam-Assassin uses Human-Build blacklists, bogofilter
generates a rating based on words in a goodlist and a badlist, which get
weigthed according to the number of times they appeard in spam or nospam
mail. Seems to work well and is a bit selflearning, I currently use this
procmail rule:


#
# SPAM filter
#

:0 HB
* ? bogofilter
{
	:0 HBc
	| mimedecode | bogofilter -s

	:0
	spam
}

:0 EHBc
| mimedecode | bogofilter -n
