Then its not catching the sort of crap we see, as per my previous most of
it is low scoring so they see it anyway, if I was to run your settings
here it would be a pure waste of time because you are still sending 99% of
it to users to evaluate if itsspam or not, but each network to their own i
supose.
But I see in your followup post you only do about 100K a day, we have 3
machines that do 3/4 of a million+ and 1 that does well over a million a
day (which is the problem one) each so they are not exactly little
machines.
