I have gone through this tutorial. Several times in fact. And as far as
making changes to postfix, remember that we have been using
postfix/Mailscanner for several years now so no special changes were
made at this point, to postfix. This was simply an upgrade of
MailScanner, ClamAV and Spamasssassin. At this point I think most of my
problem is that most non spam is being scored as spam (i.e. just above
the 5 threshold) so it is being held in quarantine. Can you direct me to
a good tutorial on fine tuning the filter rules?
