Soft blacklisting within your amavisd.conf perhaps? For example, the
email you sent to the list arrived with the following SA headers:
X-Spam-Score: -3.601
X-Spam-Level:
X-Spam-Status: No, score=-3.601 tagged_above=-999 required=5
tests=[BAYES_00=-2.599, L_P0F_UNKN=2, SPF_HELO_PASS=-0.001,
SPF_PASS=-0.001]
The scores sum to -0.601; however I have soft-whitelisting of all mail
coming from this mailing list so the score is knocked down "silently" by
an additional 3.0.
