Re: SPF_HELO_PASS on a spam message?
Matus, Thanks for the swift reply, I'll take your advice. I do find it peculiar though that a message with a subject of 'Shiny Posh Slut' and body text of 'Hardcore Blonde MILF Video' has to reply on blacklists etc. I thought systems such as the Bayesian filter would take notice of such a message based on keywords, context etc...

I can't be certain with the munged headers, but it looks like you are FORWARDING your mail internally from one server to another, and then doing an SPF check on the 'helo' between your two servers. You might want to see if you can put SA on your gateway mail server. Otherwise, be sure that 'trusted_networks' is set properly, so that SA has a better chance of examining the received header from the first external connection. - Charles
