Quick question on how emails are being marked as SPAM in this filter. It is showing we are recieving only 47 SPAM and 215 GOOD. However I think this number is reversed. Is this becasue I am using the quarentine database, so Spamfilter recievs the email into the quarentine as a GOOD email?

Sean,

If an email is classified as SPAM it usually ends up in the quarantine database (depending on what kind of rules you have configured and at which level the filters catch it). All emails that are GOOD are delivered to the recipients. Statistically yes, your numbers should be reversed, but if your users did a good job in not publicizing their email address, or have email addresses created fairly recently, then those ratios could be correct.

The number error lie within my keywords filter, which is now doing a horrible job at blocking the SPAM now. Time for REGEX I guess.
