Spamassassin book

Hello,

I am the author of a book on SpamAssassin, published by Packt Publishing.
Sample chapters of the book can be downloaded from
http://www.spamassassinbook.com/.

I intend to update the book (which already covers SA 3). I wondered if
there were any subjects that you (the SA user community) feel should be
covered.

Here is the table of contents from the current book:

1. Introducing Spam
2. Spam and Anti-Spam techniques
3. Open Relays
4. Protecting Email Addresses
5. Detecting Spam
6. Installing SpamAssassin
7. Configuration Files
8. Using SpamAssassin
9. Bayesian Filtering  Free Chapter
10. Look and Feel
11. Network Tests  Free Chapter
12. Rules
13. Improving Filtering
14. Performance
15. Housekeeping and Reporting
16. Building an Anti-Spam Gateway
17. Email Clients
18. Choosing other Spam Tools

The reviews on Amazon have generally been favourable, and as a result of
comments there I intend to increase coverage of SURBLs, for example. The
Amazon page for the book is
http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/1904811124

By the way, if you have a forum for reviewing the book (E.g. a weblog),
and you'd like a review copy of the existing book, then please get in
touch.

Alistair
