Daniel,

What value do you have for DoNoFromSelect?

I use 61, exactly for the reasons you mentioned.  63 is the default in your
version.  Thomas changed this default in 19015

- the default value for 'DoNoFromSelect' is changed from 63 to 59

  option 4 - multiple from: addresses or from: header tags found (potential
2x score if option 2 is also enabled) - caused too many false positives

I personally haven't seen the option 4 (4 - multiple from: addresses or
from: header tags found (potential 2x score if option 2 is also enabled))
to be an issue, but I see lots of scenarios, like you're seeing, where
there's a different from and sender.  So I removed 2 from my number ( 2 -
different domains found in from: and sender: email addresses - or multiple
addresses in a single header (FROM: or SENDER:) of different domains are
found ) leaving me with 61.  I've been operating like this for a while
without issue.

Hope this helps
Ken
