Actually, I tend to find that it works rather well. I have filtered on X-SBClass == Blocked and, even if it rejects some legitimate posts, it is generally efficient. I think that X-SBClass == Spam are already rejected at higher level ? I don't remember seeing anything like this in the mails I receive. And, Markus, believe me, there is a lot less spam now that there used to be ;) (but of course I'd like to see spam eradicated from Earth... what times are we living now, seriously; looks to me like the middle-age of Internet). -- Jean Delvare http://www.ensicaen.ismra.fr/~delvare/
