Thanks - Re: Less spam blocked with 3.02 - AWL-related?

Thanks to everybody who responded to my email.

I have learnt a lot, added a few filters, removed some and removed the
awl-option.

The effect:

Now:

 	Day	Week	Month	Year (Since April-June last year)
 mail1	8.74	7.25	7.44	8.17
 mail2	6.04	4.87	5.99	6.65
 mail3	6.28	5.38	5.77	6.80


This is more like the pattern I was seeing with 2.63/2.64.

My next step would be to write something that would analyse my logs to
see exactly what the rules are doing - and to try razor.

Regards
Johann
