Brightmail - Suspected Spam Threshold

Has anyone had any success with lowering this score from the default of 75. Just curious as to what other companies are using for their threshold.

In training we heard that anything below 63 is disastrous. What happens between 75 and 63 is unknown to me.

I tried lowering it to 50... didn't go very well. Within 10 minutes I had 300 quarantined messages waiting for me to manually release one by one. :x

I have mine set currently at 65 and it has been working well... as far as false pos. are concerned anyway.

Ours has been set to 65 for about a year without any issue with false positives. :)
