SpamAssassin trouble

[Florent Boyer]

Hello,

I have some difficulties to get a good configuration on spamassassin.

I changed the "hits required for spam" number in the plesk interface to 7, 6, 5 and even 4, my customers tells me he still received a lot of spam, and a lot of good mails are ponted as spam.

What can i do to fix those problems ?

Thanks for your help.

Florent
