Thanks for the input Julian.

I have MailScanner working and it is bouncing all spam it finds as well as
forwarding it to me as the system admin.

I have gotten Razor2 installed and working. I have successfully registered
on the network. I am having difficulty with two issues:

1- You mentioned that you have 2 addresses setup for reporting spam called
"spam" and "notspam". I have not found any documentation on how to
accomplish this. Do you know where I can find documentation? I would like
to make it as easy as possible for Windows users to be able to report spam
and forwarding any incorrect messages to an email address would make it a
snap (needless to say that I don't want them forwarding to my address).

2- I have SpamAssassin working with MailScanner and have not seen any
settings or configs for Bayes. How do I turn it on or set it up?

Thanks for any assistance or info.
