Hi guys,

I've heard rumours that ruleqa might not work so nicely with nice rules
(rules with minus scores) - is this true?

If so what would be the suggestion for scoring rules with minus scores
properly? https://wiki.apache.org/spamassassin/RescoreMassCheck

I know Bill has expressed some concerns over the DKIMWL rules in the past,
I'd like to clear up these concerns.

The DKIMWL community has members of the SA community taking part in
scoring. The scoring is done by committee - no single user can have total
whitelist/blacklist adjustments on the scores.

I can confirm that after any retirement of the DKIMWL service that the
dkimwl.org domain will continue to exists and return NXDOMAIN for any
responses for at least 1 year.

Matching of return address is specific to the DKIMWL whitelist - it's
unlikely that if the dkimwl.org domain is released back into the wild that
rules would continue to match on any domains.

This is a very similar situation to the IADB set of rules, as well as
others, that could potentially return codes that allows emails to have
minus scores - on reflection I agree the -7.5 default isn't suitable and
that a ruleqa dervied score would be most suitable...
