I have it setup to delete messages from server if score is more then 90.

It's not doing it. It's kind of annoying.

What gives?

I am running version 1.7.0.8 (but it has being like this for a while)

TIA

Sorry, I diddn't explain the issue properly.

I mean - the spam does get filtered and goes to my Junk Mail folder on my PC, but it should stay on the server and get deleted there. Like other and most of the other spam. "It should not get downloaded".

It's the same formed spam that is getting trough over and over again.

Sample bellow:
---------------------------------------------------------------------
2005 was the year of the oil company with many of these
companies posting record profits. 2006 has been the year
of alternative fuels with companies involved in this sector
blowing off the charts. This trend shows no signs of
abating.
Our next feature is right in the thick of the high-growth
alternative energy sector and they are doing incredible
things.

AlgoDyne Ethanol Energy

Symbol: ADYN

Current Price: $1.30
Short Term Target: $3.50
Long Term Projected: $10.00

It doesn't take a genius to know why alternative energy is
such a high-growth area right now. Smart traders know how
to watch global trends and seize the moment.

AlgoDyne is where it's at. AlgoDyne has developed a
turnkey solution in their proprietary micro-algae based
process which can produce direct electricity, eco-friendly
fuels, and valuable bi-products.

The company has just hit its sweet spot in the development
phase and is set to release some astounding results. These
revelations are being backed up by a far-reaching PR
campaign.

It is essential to get in early in order to enjoy the
biggest gains. Come Tuesday, December 26th this one will
be rapidly going up to meet our target price!

Do not delay! Win with ADYN!

Is their way I can make an adjustment? Like go lower score for the server setting in the Bat config. From 90 to 65?
TB v3.85.02
ASS 1.8.0.1
TheBat is setup to delete emails from the server.

TIA

axn,

you want AntiSpamSniper to check your e-mail and you listed the e-mail body as example. There is NO PROGRAM in the world that can check the e-mail text without downloading. Any AntiSpam software must download the complete text and only then it will be able to process it.

There are a couple of programs that offer to delete mail on the server but they pray on the end-user's misinterpretation of how e-mail filtering is done. They download the entire mail as required for filtering, and then go back to the server to delete it. Practically, they increase your bandwidth more than necessary.

Decrease TheBat's upper limit for deleting but please note that e-mails you deleted are gone and cannot be recovered.

Frankly this is is getting complicated.

I am not sure how better I can format my question.

I just don't want the "same" spam in my junk folder in my PC. It should be eliminated in my pop on the server site "like MOST of the other spam".

The early ASS use to do it - but it was very aggressive. Now it's doing it as well, but it's more relaxed and large number of spam is reaching my PC.

axn,

it is my understanding that ASS can check/ delete mail on the server by checking the mail headers only and not the entire mail text. In order to check the contents (text), the entire mail must be downloaded and will then be submitted to your e-mail client. If the mail arrives with a mail rating of i.e.: 88, then you must make sure that TheBat! checkbox: "Delete a message if the score is greater than..." is checked and that the score limit is set to less than the rating.

Your previous posting listed the mail text as an example but no reference to the mail headers. I hope that this answers your question.
