    Spamhalter training

    I use the Spamcop DNSBL to tag messages which Spamhalter then recognises as 'Blocked SPAM!' and then my filter rule bins it.

    This is good.

    I am wondering if Spamhalter still uses these mails to train it's db ( I use Train Always)

    To be certain, look at the Spamhalter log for one of these messages.

    hmm ... looked at the log and was still not certain, which is the reason I posted Embarrassed

    doesn't say it was used to train ... 

    EDIT:

    But the fact that it is there, and TA is ON should mean that it is used. The "is on WH+" presumably get used as well.

    I think I have talked myself around, but was really just after confirmation that using a Blocklist does not reduce the "knowledge" of my spamhalter db. Geeked
