How is the spam catch rate determined? Parent topic

Specify a threshold value between 3.0 and 10.0 for IMSS to classify a message as spam. A high threshold value means that a message must be very "spam-like" to be classified as spam (this decreases the spam catch rate but reduces the likelihood of false positives). A lower threshold value means that a message only needs to be slightly "spam-like" to be classified as spam (this increases the spam catch rate and may lead to more false positives).
