Yes, SA is one of my SMTP time filters as part of an Exim ACL. It is set to
high enough to not have false positives, but blocks about 60% of the SPAM
which make it that far (I have other simple rule filters before SA; such as
Distributed Check Sum). And just a note: I do not use the result of my other
filters to train DSPAM. That tends to cause problems. As for the percentage,
yes DSPAM can do that, although I do not know how.

That's interesting. So SA is a prefilter to DSPAM? Do you reject email
at SMTP time with SA and then use DSPAM on what's left?
Spamprobe has a way of returning a one line score. I can:
cat message| spamprobe score
And I get a result with a number line 0.988234 so I can then process
that number. Can DSPAM do that? I'm also having problems compiling it
under Fedora Core 4 - can't find libmysqlclient - but I should go to
their support forum to solve that.
