Best spam filtering software

[Lighthouse@]

Plesk 8.0 did get a more recent release of SpamAssassin. How well does SpamAssassin filter spam?

Are there better products available for Plesk/spam filtering?

I look for a solution where I can provide customers with 99,9% clean email. The false positive resultaat should be something like 1 : 1.000.000.

Is that possible?

If it was that easy spam wouldn't exist ..

hi,

SpamAssassin is not bad and you can train the filter, but there are also external solutions where several scanners and filters are being used.

Buy yourself a barracudanetworks.com spam firewall. Sell the service as a value added service to your current clients. It's awesome and will lower your load on your webservers. One of the best items we ever bought... well besides Plesk

Personally I am using an ART version of SpamAssassin with Qscand. This is configured to delete messages over a certain score and quarantine others. It integrates in with Plesk just fine as well.

I find that this solution blocks about 95% of my spam. The little amount that gets through I use sa-learn to modify the Boolean filters that SpamAssassin uses.

Can you let me know (of point me in the right direction) to setup quarantining with ART packages?

Thanks.
