Thanks for the replies. I already have my kill levels at 66/25, and we are geting a fair amount of spam in our inboxes. But we only have 3 users right now and have been running for less than a week.

It sounds like I should keep the kill levels where they are and continue to have everyone mark their spam for a while so the system can get trained. If after a couple weeks of training there is still a fair amount of spam in the inboxes I should experiment with the kill levels.

Clarification on the #5 ham training question. My confusion is that I thought zmtrainsa trained the system what is spam and what is ham by checking the spam/ham *mailboxes*. I believe these mailboxes get populated when users correct false positives in the junk folder and and missed spam in the inbox using the junk/not junk buttons. Hence if I never get a false positive, never click "not junk," the ham *mailbox* would be empty and not useful for training.

Phoenix, are you saying that for the purposes of training SA items in the inbox are used as examples of ham?
