Yesterday an *nix admin asked me what Email-client I use. My answer: MS Outlook 2003 latest SP and Updates. Why?
His answer: Our local Spamassassin has catched my previous message as spam. ---- Start SpamAssassin results 5.50 points, 5 required; * 0.5 -- Received via SMTPD32 server (SMTPD32-n.n) * 1.1 -- BODY: Message is 40% to 50% HTML * 0.1 -- BODY: HTML included in message * 3.7 -- Forged mail pretending to be from MS Outlook * 0.1 -- Message looks like Outlook, but isn't ---- End of SpamAssassin results I can't understand not a single of this 5 points. Point 1: "Received via SMTPD32 server" => (10% of SA hold weight) Googling for "SMTPD32" returns most results regarding Imail server and some other results regarding email marketing companies. Looks like SA is punishing messages comming from Imail servers. Point 2 & 3: My initial message was plain-text. So what SA has to regret about HTML? Point 4 & 5: Looks like SA doesn't know the newest releases of MS Outlook but assigns 3.8 points (76% of the hold weight!!!)
