Hi Luciano.

It is not only a matter of databases: they use different methods to extract
hashes of the message in order to check them against their own databases of
well-known spam signatures.

Besides, the methods Razor adopt to do it are proprietary, so generally we
(the users) can't easily estimate how much overlap is in the results of
these two packages. So it is not easy to tune their scores.

However, Razor seems to have a quite wide userbase and (authenticated)
methods to revoke FPs, so I'm inclined to trust Razor hits a bit more than
Pyzor ones.

My SAs get Pyzor hits even today, so I guess it is some problem with your
own setup/installation.

Why don't you place a help request in pyzor-users <at> lists.sourceforge.net ?

Re: Razor and Pyzor

Sorry, I know this is the Razor-suers list, but:
run:
pyzor discover

also, look at this patch to the pyzor executable that you may need:
