This is a post I made to the Spamassassin mailing list. I think this may
have more to do with mimdefang than spamassassin because of the last
experiment I made below:
*** post to spamassassin mail list ***
Yes I am sure I see the -100 score effect, here is an example from this
message posted to the list:
X-Spam-Status: No, hits=-107.0 required=5.0
tests=1.6:AWL;
version=3.1.0
X-Scanned-By: MIMEDefang 2.53 on 68.122.243.210
Note that it is mimedefang and not spamassassin that is writing the
X-Spam-Status from the filter_end() function which I have modified.
I added my whitelist_from commands to my local.cf file which is in
/etc/mail/spamassassin. I am sure that these
rules are being read as I have watch the startup with spamassassin -D
--lint
And I have run --lint with no errors.
I know I have muddied the water a bit with mimedefang but what I do in
filter_end() is pretty straight forward.
my($hits, $req, $names, $report) = spam_assassin_check();
# look at $report and take the n.n tag part out
my $myrpt = '';
for my $ln (split '\n', $report) {
next unless $ln =~ /^ *(\d+\.\d+) +(\w+) /;
$myrpt .= "$1:$2;";
}
# Regardless of hit or miss generate the X-Spam-Status
action_change_header("X-Spam-Status", &build_status_line($hits,
$req, $names, $myrpt));
The build_status_line() mimics SA's output pretty much to create
multiple wrapped lines of 'score:rule;...'
I write this in both ham and spam emails. The $myrpt is also written to
the log file.
I have never seen the USER_IN_WHITELIST rule.
Here is what I see if I run spamassassin from the command line on this
message after first doing a spamassassin -d to strip
off the headers and then doing a spamassassin <stripped-mail.eml
X-Spam-Checker-Version: SpamAssassin 3.1.0 (2005-09-13) on
bartonphillips.com
X-Spam-Level: X-Spam-Status: No, score=-107.0 required=5.0
tests=AWL,BAYES_00,SPF_PASS,
USER_IN_WHITELIST,USER_IN_WHITELIST_TO autolearn=unavailable
version=3.1.0
But not that the score=-107.0 is the same score I get via SA run by
mimedefang.
If no one here has an idea I will ask on the mimedefang list.
Thanks
