Hi: Just a quick question about the spam-reporting interface on ASSP 1.9x.
Does reporting spam do anything beyond adding/removing email addresses
from the white/blacklist?
For example does reporting spam affect the bayesian dB or do anything to
prevent additional spam coming from different email addresses from
getting through?
If not, is there any way to do that through the email interface, so that
spammy subject lines are automatically added to the BombRE files or
something like that?
I am receiving tons of identical, or nearly identical, "pennystock" spam
which of course is always from different compromised senders/hosts.
I've enabled the BombSubjectRE with DoBombSubjectRe set to "score", and
I've been manually adding some persistent subject lines manually to the
"file:files/bombsubjectre.txt" with a score of "0.9", but I'm not sure
if this is an effective way to try to block the spam, or if there's a
better way?
TIA, AK
