How in this case do I teach SA? Whoops! Excuse me for not reading the original question properly. In your case, each user will be getting missed spam in their "inbox", correct? The only thing that I can think of is for each user to have a "MissedSpam" folder, and be trained to move all spam to that folder. You probably don't want to run sa-learn on the inbox, some people never clean it up, leaving old msgs there instead of filing them in a sub folder. Then you could write a simple script that loops through each MissedSpam folder, and runs sa-learn. The problem with this, though, is that you have to depend on the users to do someting, and to do it correctly. I've never found users to be that dependable. ;-) - -- Charles Howse Jackson, TN Registered Linux user # 347576 (http://counter.li.org) -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.3 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFAU4FE/S+VsB9RMKgRArHyAKCW3u9OdngJK7n1QypOtZB0FMcMhACfU+8z jPEm+PHxu8F+r67cxbXfZqg= =zyfG -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
