 They're definitely *...@domain.com in the From: header.


 Does the X-Spam-Status header show that a blacklist matched
 (USER_IN_BLACKLIST)?


 No, they don't (the ones that don't get tagged).

 Thanks,

 Interesting, then one of the following is the cause:

 1) there's errors in your config, and SA isn't parsing local.cf at all.
 To check for this, run spamassassin --lint. It should run quietly, if
 it complains, find and fix the offending lines.

 2) You're editing a local.cf in the wrong path. Check what the site
 rules dir is near the top of the debug output when you run
 spamassassin -D --lint.

 3) the offending message has multiple From: headers, and SA is
 interpreting the other one. You can try looking at the raw message
 source for this.

 4) The configuration being used at delivery time is over-riding the one
 used at the command line. You can try pumping the message as a file
 through spamassassin on the command line and see what it comes up with.
 If it matches USER_IN_BLACKLIST on the command-line, but fails to match
 at delivery, something is fishy about your integration and how it
 configures SA.

 Or, does order of comparison matter. From the documentation,
 blacklist_from states to see whitelist_from. whitelist_from states:

 The headers checked for whitelist addresses are as follows: if
 Resent-From is set, use that; otherwise check all addresses
 taken from the following set of headers:

 Envelope-Sender
 Resent-Sender
 X-Envelope-From
 From

 If taken in that order, the From header field would be compared last.


It will check *ALL* of the from like headers, and it will fire if
*ANY* of them match.

So that's not the problem.

 Interesting, then one of the following is the cause:

Ahem. Always do run a lint check after any changes. Hope we can rule
this one out.

Please reread. If there is a resent-from header then that is used; if  
there is not, then *ALL* the address from the other headers.

some domains in my local.cf file not being tagged

2009-09-02 Thread Mark Mahabir
Hi,

I have a large number of domains I've blacklisted in my local.cf file e.g.

blacklist_from *...@domain.com

however spam from some domains gets tagged, whereas others don't. What
can I do to improve the situation?

Thanks

Mark
