Auto Learn Spam

2010-04-28 Thread Carlos Mennens
I noticed when reviewing headers today that there was a section for 'autolearn=no' and was wondering what exactly does this mean and wouldn't autolearn be a good thing? I use Amavisd-new which calls out to SpamAssassin modules but I don't have the spamd daemon running physically. The Amavisd-new

I noticed someone sent me an email and there are no SA heading info in the message. SA didn't provide a score or status on the message headers for some weird reason. I then checked my mail logs and saw this message: Mar 5 08:52:18 mail spamc[2635]: skipped message, greater than max message size
