My existing filter looks like this:

if((isspam("spamassassin:subj8bit:subjcaps:subjendjunk:korean:exeattach:xauthwarn:received:html:badmime"))){move("MailArchive/aardvark/spam");}

Do I have to add something to it to tell it to use DSPAM ? The rule used to
include whitelist (from the previous snapshot) but I manually removed that.

Thanks for the tip.
