Adding a New Word to the antispam-table.txt File

You can use antispamseeder.exe to enter a new word into the antispam-table.txt file and to assign a word count to the word.

To enter a new word into the antispam-table.txt file and assign a word count to it:

1. From the command prompt, enter the following command:

   antispamseeder.exe -w<word> -c<word count> [-spam|-good] -h<hostname>

   Note: If neither the –spam nor –good parameters are entered, antispamseeder.exe will default to
   –spam.

   Enter a word that does not exist. For the word count, enter a value between 1 and 5.

2. When this is done, the queue manager is notified and the word values contained in the antispam-table.txt file are automatically reloaded to include the word that you entered in the above command.
