Hi All,
I'm new to spamassassin configuration and would be grateful of some help with scoring. I am trying to work out why an email with the following headers was not flagged as spam
From this I've been able to work out there was an issue with URIBL which I believe is now resolved by updating resolv.conf with the local name server details. Would that alone be enough for this mail to not be flagged as spam?
In addition to this however it looks like the spam scoring for the MSPIKE checks is not right? If I'm understanding correctly the sender is listed in the L4 and BL lists but this is not affecting the score? Should this be adding to the score and if so where do I configure the values?
Finally how does the X-Spam-Score relate to the SpamTally header?
Many thanks for any help.
Andy
