How can I stop all emails being marked as BAYES_00

[b19wll]

Hi

I have noticed that all my emails are marked as BAYES_00 even when the email was clearly spam, see the scores below;

Is there something I should be doing so every email is not given a -1.90 score by default? I reguarly feed it ham and spam via"Reports >> Message Operations"

Thanks Will

Are you training your bayes?

[b19wll]

I am via message operations, is that correct?

[shawniverson]

Yeah, but it takes *a lot* of sample messages to influence bayes scoring, and doesn't happen overnight.

I have been running it for over a year? I will keep on feeding it and see what happens

Any joy?

One problem I find with find with the bayes filter is that the spammers are finding new ways to defeat it temporarily until the filter is retrained which is why I cannot just rely on it solely.
