Some people send mail to lists with a Big5 or other foreign language indicated in the headers even though the message is actually in English (sheer sloppiness on their part), and those get blocked. Also, some of the IP matching for "rogue sites" and "habitual spammers" catches people it shouldn't. Almost anything from Australia gets nailed by the "Telstra block" rule, for example. I also find that without pattern matching enabled, a lot of spam gets through, but pattern matching also catches a lot of things it shouldn't. Once, someone mentioned buy.com in a message, and SpamBlocker immediately flagged it as spam. I've been trying to adjust the initial scores for some of the patterns to make them behave better, and that's improved things, but it's still not perfect, and I doubt it ever will be. Craig
