Hey guys I am looking at the admin interface, and it seems like there is a way to set moderators to recieve emails would that be something we want.<div><br></div><div>Also on another note something we could setup which would be easier that anyone can manage would be untangle security distro. It has a web based interface and all. </div>
<div><br></div><div>Arend is the mailing list on a virtual server or a shared server? If a virtual server it would be great if we could put together an untangled virtual machine and all the mods would have a web based interface to manage various aspects spam filtering included. its debian based and I have seen it in use and the spam filter works wonders.<br>

</div>FWIW, I did offer to set up spam filtering for this. Need to know how<br>
they process their mail, and we can set up an annotation pipeline<br>
(complete with Bayesian, heuristic, and other filters). At the end of<br>
the process, we have a pretty good score and cutoff for spam vs<br>
not-spam. We use that for our filtering. Since we get a couple<br>
thousand emails running through the filters a day, we get maybe 3-4<br>
false positives, and a few false negatives that we correct by hand<br>
(training the Bayesian network).<br>
