Andrew, you're not alone... I had the same problems and couldn't find a way to force reloading the definitions file(s). Tried disabling/enabling, changing threshold, editing in internal editor w/o saving, all to no avail.

BTW, that is how I found out that the internal editor won't let you edit an oversize file, but you can still save it - truncated :-(

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 that there is seemingly an open file issue, ie. cannot live edit the file. 

• Is this just me, or is this the reality?
• Is there an easy way to reload spambust file into memory that is not a matter of closing and opening Pegasus (which gets very ordinary)

Regards Andrew
