Hi,

It is sensical:

If you set required_score to, say 5, in /etc/mail/spamassassin/local.cf all mail that is 5 or above is marked as spam. If a particular user wants to reject (or mark and passthru) anything that is 3 or above that can be set in /var/qmail/control/simcontrol for that
user's email account using spam_hits, right?
My problem is that even when spam_hits is lower then required_score it still shows required_score as the threshold in the header. That is
the part that does not make sense.

So it should at least be clear what I am trying to accomplish, btw, I had this working fine a year or so ago with a different toaster which is no longer being maintained, with a different version of simscan, not sure if there was a special patch though.

Thank you for looking at this,
Randy

Thanks, Eric.

I might add that having spam_hits less than required_score seems non-sensical to me. spam_hits tells simscan to reject *spam* over a particular score, not all messages over a particular score. Thus, having spam_hits less than required_score has the same effect as if they were equal values. IOW, a message must qualify as spam (exceed required_score) before spam_hits becomes effective.

In order to reject spam for a given user at a score that's below tagged spam for all others (required_score), you'd need to be able to specify a different required_score for that user. I don't know that this is presently possible.

Once more, I'm interested to know what it is you're try to accomplish. Can you elaborate?

FWIW, simscan will no longer be used in QMTv2 (amavis will replace it), so I wouldn't be too concerned with simscan at this point. I would like to ensure though that whatever it is you're trying to accomplish can be done with the amavis configuration in QMTv2.
