Spam Assassin help: Odd scores.

[edjones]

First test, from my Google Apps account to my test email on my server...

X-Spam-Status: No, score=-97.4 required=5.0 tests=HTML_IMAGE_ONLY_12, HTML_MESSAGE, HTML_OBFUSCATE_05_10, LOTS_OF_MONEY, RCVD_IN_DNSWL_LOW, SUBJ_ALL_CAPS,T_REMOTE_IMAGE,USER_IN_WHITELIST
autolearn=no version=3.3.2

The title was "WIN THE LOTTERY". Does that look normal? score= -97.4, required=5.0? I know the 5 bit is normal, but -97... Next test was this:

X-Spam-Status: No, score=-90.9 required=5.0 tests=DRUGS_ANXIETY, DRUGS_ERECTILE, DRUGS_MUSCLE, HTML_IMAGE_ONLY_24, HTML_MESSAGE, HTML_OBFUSCATE_20_30, LOTS_OF_MONEY, RCVD_IN_DNSWL_NONE, T_REMOTE_IMAGE, USER_IN_WHITELIST
autolearn=no version=3.3.2

In this one I just put the name of a bunch of Erectile Disfunction medications several times. Score is down to score=-90.9 required=5.0 but isn't coming up labeled as spam. Seems a lot to get to a score of 5.

According to https://spamassassin.apache.org/tests_3_3_x.html it's impossible to get that far the negatives. I don't see any settings on the admin panel, neither in admin or reseller. only user.

This is a great question for a SpamAssassin forum or list . Is there one?
