My thought is that the "X-Spam-Flag: YES" is sufficient. I believe that all recent-vintage email clients allow filtering on arbitrary headers. In fact, I used to do so with Eudora before I switched to Mozilla. Also, I'm worried about liability issues potentially involved with changing subject lines. Other thoughts? Steve John M.

I was looking through their e-mail client setups, and discovered that the Windows version of Outlook Express had the note "Outlook Express does not support the kind of filtering options required to filter Spam tagged by UC Davis." Sure enough, it's filtering options are truly primitive and inadequate. The Mac version, which is newer, is OK. Steve Russ Hobby wrote: > UCD has recently started spam tagging too.

It might make sense to copy this usage to make things easy for folks who also get UCD mail. We could also benefit from copying (with credit) their client setup instructions. [With SpamAssassin, the number of asterisks would represent the spam-rules score. I've been using the "X-Spam-Flag: YES" header, which turns on at a score of five.] Steve DCN Web Team wrote: > Thanks for the reference.
