I'm sure Vipul will weigh in on this separately, but just to clarify: razor/spamnet currently uses Logic Method 4, which specifies that a message will be marked as SPAM if one or more of its uncontended parts is known by the system to be SPAM.
I think the issue below has to do with razor somehow not ignoring an empty part (it should be stripping out the MIME headers, which is why the NextPart sequence shouldn't matter). I'll wait for Vipul address this. --jordan On Wed, Oct 23, 2002 at 10:56:15AM -0400, Spam wrote: # I confirm this problem.
