Thank you for the answer. Yes, you are right. Anyway I set ‘$sa_kill_level_deflt = 6.31’ too in amavis configuration.
I could agree for the differnce of the score of the message assigned by amavis and the score of the SA test of the quarantined message.. But, I would like to understand why amavis assigns a so high score (7.946) to a harmless message ..

Even after the changes done to the amavis configuration, I still notice that some messages has been blocked as SPAM. For example: Jul 18 12:04:55 zzz amavis[18242]: (18242-14) Blocked SPAM {DiscardedInbound,Quarantined}, [195.245.231.137]:39849 [193.67.127.189] <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> -> <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>>, quarantine: B/spam-BknEtFAN2Yh1.gz, Queue-ID: 31099D5C4B, Message-ID: <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>>, mail_id: BknEtFAN2Yh1, Hits: 7.946, size: 170434, 551 ms while the score I get while testing the messages is much lower that $sa_tag2_level_deflt (1.9 < 6.31): ... Where is the problem? Why the message is tagged as SPAM and quarantined? It is not $sa_tag2_level_deflt that determines whether message is quarantined, this only determines whether to add 'spam detected' headers in the emails. Score above $sa_kill_level_deflt triggers evasive action (i.e. according to $spam_quarantine_method). Also I am not sure you can rely on getting same spam calculation when you re-test a quarantined email as when it arrives from outside, perhaps this is why header shows score of 7.946 but retest only 1.9?
