[NCLUG] SpamAssassin Testimonials?

[Rich Young]

Hi, all-
	We're considering installing SpamAssassin, and some 
of my users here aren't familiar enough with it to know 
whether they should support the plan or not. I would 
appreciate it if a few of you who have had personal 
experience with SpamAssassin could reply to me off list 
with your brief thoughts on its effectiveness as a spam 
reduction tool.  

I'd be especially grateful for comments on:
- accidental filtering of legitimate messages
- difficulties adjusting the threshold to optimal level
- numeric estimates on how much spam reduction it provided
- how much maintenance it requires to stay ahead of the 
   spammers
- any issues regarding using it in a business setting 
   with multiple users

Thanks tons for any info you can provide,

--Rich
