And destroy the usability of email for clients in the medical field, researchers, people who need medication, or to discuss it, conversations about husbands, and wives, etc.ProWebUK said:You can get rid of the obvious spam - filters with a few off keywords get rid of most of it - 'enlargement' 'wife' 'husband' 'mortgage' 'pills' 'valium' 'viagra' 'weight' are keywords that would destroy most spam for users such as us in the web hosting industry...

Not sure if i agree there at all, I guess it *can* although not always, there are often circumstances where a single IP address on a subnet is used for spam, and whole subnets get blocked... As you may or may not know, I will assume you do, its often very difficult to get yourself removed from block lists. and when an incident such as the one stated above occurs it *can* cause serious problems for you, your customers and other users of the subnet.. and take weeks before anything can get done. SpamAssasin, hardware firewalls etc will never get this problem. Also, based on the above that could lead to many more false "spam" messages being caught up.

If you're willing to test our new exim.conf file I think you'll be presently surprised.
