For example certain subjects will always be garbage. I added (to my own version of AS) something I call a BATCH name. The rules file eg contains: BATCH Bank spoofs DELETE rules for bank-account phishers ... ... BATCH Bigger bits DELETE ... lots of enhancement subjects So inside AS, each rule has stored with it the "batch name" that I've allocated to that set of rules. In the logs which result, each matching test is described including the batch name that's relevant, eg lines look like <timestamp> del-msg 1 (sz=1,053) [Bigger bits] deleted on rule .... and when I check the logs I have StrongEd isolate just the 'delete' summary lines and sort the display according to the [rule name]. So in the summary all the rules that were variants on "Bigger bits" are listed together. As I have been careful in defining those rules I trust them. Others I trust less and check each one to see what was actually deleted. -- Jeremy Nicoll - my opinions are my own
