Spamassassin Correct ?

[Garry Trethewey]

Dunno if this is strictly linux stuff, but I'll reply to this list.

Loss via spam filters has become an issue for us. My wife & I work for 
state & local government. We've both lost stuff between work and home, 
and I've found (too late) I've lost quite important stuff from collegues.

I believe spam filters are often turned up to max sensitivity. Where I 
work, having porn is a sackable offence, so it's understandable.

Dunno what to do about it - I've tried the footer below, nobody takes 
any notice. Perhaps turn down the sensitivity, learn to tolerate a 
certain amount of garbage, but in the paranoid climate I just mentioned, 
that's not going to happen.

Im interested in any thoughts people have.

Please hit the reply button to acknowledge recipt. Why?
Lots of ISP's and individuals use "best guess" spam
filters. They tend to produce false positives, so
legitimate email disappears.
