[QUOTE="Randy B. Singer, post: 1934421, member: 190607"] I don't know how else you would be able to have a program "know" what you personally consider to be spam and what you don't consider to be spam if you didn't train it. I find the way that SpamSieve does it to be close to ideal. Training SpamSieve is just about trivially easy, and it sure is worth the effort. Indeed, because SpamSieve uses this method of identifying spam, and not a simple blacklist, it has proven next to impossible for spammers to get around SpamSieve. I just want to note that e-mail messages in Apple's Junk folder, or in SpamSieve's Spam folder, are restricted from phoning home. So you can open them and inspect them safely to your heart's content.
