Dspam

I have noticed when i turn Spam Assassin on, on my Mailbox, it doesnt really filter out much spam anymore. Has anyone thought of changing over to DSPAM?

It looks like a very capable open-source spam filter.

I havent been having any trouble with spam lately, or since i turned sa on.

I have the filter set at 5. It filters about 1/2 of the viagra, body part enlargement, mortgage stuff.

I assume the stuff that gets through is just more sophisticated and has designed their stuff to get around the s.a. rules.

I don't use it anymore...now that you have to login unsecurely to email to use it. Shame.

I've set a customers to 4 - he was getting about 50+ junk messages per day and now it's way down. I'd say that's a success. The only thing I wish that SA could do was allow for Subject Line or Body filtering. Since spammers typically forge their email address, that filter is generally useless, but the subject line can stay the same for a long time. It's probably too tough on the server resources, though.

Maybe he thought there use to be SSL on SA and now theres not, but there has never been SSL on SA.. Good be added but would make a SSL pop-up message..
