It is impossible for us to know because we do not have access to your
servers. However it is easy for you to know by running spamassassin
in debug mode and have it print out what hit on each message and then
comparing them.
Pipe the same sample spam message through spamassassin in debug mode
and compare the results summarized at the bottom of the output.
| spamassassin -d -t -D 2>&1 | less
This will result in something similar to the following:
Content analysis details: (19.6 points, 5.0 required)
pts rule name description
---- ----------------------
--------------------------------------------------
0.9 FUZZY_VPILL BODY: Attempt to obfuscate words in spam
0.1 HTML_90_100 BODY: Message is 90% to 100% HTML
0.3 HTML_FONT_SIZE_HUGE BODY: HTML font size is huge
4.0 MIME_HTML_ONLY BODY: Message only has text/html MIME parts
2.4 DRUGS_ERECTILE_OBFU Obfuscated reference to an erectile drug
0.5 DRUGS_ERECTILE Refers to an erectile drug
1.1 HTML_MIME_NO_HTML_TAG HTML-only message, but there is no HTML tag
...more lines deleted...
Comparing your two cases should make it obvious. But scoring 1000
sounds like a gtube test. Which means that the installation *not*
scoring 1000 is missing rules and should be debugged and fixed.
