Hi, I have been working with building content control from an external editor as the existing file, when edited, quickly is bigger than the 32kb.  I had been having difficulties with not getting filter lines to work, lots of problems and frustration.  Then I finally discovered that with an external editor for the spambust.dat file ...

[Background, problems]SpamHalter (in Pegasus 4.41) doesn't learn from Content Control's decisions, as shown in headers and the ''Explain classification'' dialog box. SH training is not triggered when CC moves a message to the Junk folder, in contrast to when a message is ''Quick Moved'', drag/dropped or moved there by a general filtering ...

Thomas R. Stephenson:I'm catching 99.77% of the spam right now with Bayesian filtering using POPFile.  Not too sure it's worth all that much effort to use CC ( I have one entry in the CC file) at all to catch the 0.13% that get through the Bayesian  filtering.  In looking at Spamhalter on the same system it's getting well over 99% ...

pmerik:I suggest that Content Control should accumulate weights from all rule sets. Possibly as an option with an associated threshold, in addition to the per file thresholds. Rationale: Content Control is a valuable spam fighting tool because it can catch tricks that would fool Bayesian filters, e.g concatenation like ...

Hi, I have made some additions to the excellent rule set that comes with Pegasus' Content Control (SPAMBUST.DAT). My new rules are in a separate file (MY_SPAMBUST.DAT). This is to avoid problems when updating or re-installing Pegasus - e.g. the risk of overwriting the file, losing my additions. It seems like Pegasus runs Content Control ...

Hello all, Is there a way to avoid being whitelisted? I know this sounds a bit weird, but here's why: Some junk emails end up in my Inbox because the sender is whitelisted. This only happens when I'm the sender - forged, of course. (I guess the probability of spammers using any other whitelisted address is low.) From time to time I send ...

Hello all, [Background]I'm running Pegasus 4.41 and use both SpamHalter and Content Control to filter out junk email. This works very well in my experience, with SH filtering out maybe 95% of the junk - and almost no false positives. CC catches some two thirds of the rest. A big Thank You to David Harris and Lukas Gebauer! [Initial problem]In ...

Hi Content control is disabled for this account. I moved the larger cnm's out of the folder but it did not make any difference. So I moved them back in and manually moved the mail from the New Mail folder to the Main folder. However, even after marking subsequent new mail as 'read', when I close the account, it still hangs. Clicking the ...
