I've built a pretty complete set of filters that get about 95+% of the spam I receive and also deal with sorting my other mail appropriately. There are still cases however where non-spam emails from my customers and business contacts end up in my spam file. This file accumulates about 400 messages a day in it and I must review it fairly often looking for non-spam. Is there anyway to set up a filter that recognizes if a sender is in my address book. That would help reduce the problem.
being fairly new to the list and not knowing what your setup might be, i'll suggest the obvious: use a mail filter like procmail instead of evo for mail filtering. it should then be fairly easy (very in procmail's case) to integrate your filter with a spam tool like spam assassin. i use the procmail/spam assassin setup and am very happy. i haven't had any false positives and only a few false negatives. -- Peter Abplanalp Email: pta psaconsultants com PGP: pgp.mit.edu
