Helmut's spot on. In order to tell why something's marked spam, don't
guess. The headers (and spamd log) tell you exactly which rules fired,
and what value each rule scored. Only after you know this can you take
predictable action. You may simply need to adjust your required_score
parameter a little upwards.

You can look in the headers and see how spamassassin is scoring it.
For sure I would not whitelist all of gmail, just the particular address.
BUT, if it is sending to hundreds at a time the empirical evidence
points to it being spammy at least.

I am pretty sure it will only check max recipients on your system, is
it being sent to hundreds of users on your system?
only one user on My sys
so why , i wonder , is
[email protected] <mailto:[email protected]>
being marked *** SPAM ***
surely gmail.com has a rvs dns and mx record and all that good stuff

I have a user who is having email from
[email protected] <mailto:[email protected]>
being marked *** SPAM ***
I hesitate to white list in the /etc/spamasassin/local.conf
all of gmail [ whitelist_from *@gmail.com <mailto:*@gmail.com> }
i did whitelist whitelist_from [email protected]
<mailto:[email protected]> .
I am wondering the following
1 - is there a max num ( and what is the num and can I increase it ) of
white list enties one can have?
also
I suspect that the reason this is being marked spam is because it is
being sent to 100s of people
how can i "allow" or not score points for emails that a user gets that
is also being sent to ....100 other folks.
thanks
