I have Spam Assassin “required_hits” set at 3 (the default being 5) yet I am still getting 30-50 pieces of spam per day, with maybe 1 being caught and sent to the spam box in Horde.
I have not changed any other settings.

What do I need to do to get SA to work?

Thanks

I think its simply waiting for Spam Assasin to issue another update. The spammers are using some techniques that fool almost all the anti spam programs by inserting all kinds of garbage text (as you may have seen).

I"m pretty sure LP will upgrade spam assasin once a newer version is available.

You can try adding your own filter settings, but that can get very technically complex Smile
If you want to, you may want to take a search around these forums - there have been some how tos posted before.
