           Summary: X-Ham-Report default wording ("has identified this
                    incoming email as possible spam") is confusing and
                    inaccurate
           Product: Spamassassin
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Tools
        AssignedTo: [email protected]
        ReportedBy: [email protected]


The default wording of X-Ham-Report, when configured to be included, says that
'Spam detection software, running on the system "_HOSTNAME_", has
report identified this incoming email as possible spam.' This is wrong (for
X-Ham-Report); it should say that the software has identified the email as
probably not spam.

This wording may be shown to mail recipients depending on their MUA settings
(e.g. see
http://forums.cpanel.net/f43/case-45360-ham-being-reported-spam-started-recently-175291-p2.html),
or if they see the full headers in a bounce report. Just being in a header that
isn't normally seen doesn't excuse this inaccuracy.
