Hello Paul,

SNF does not yet see things that are not there - only those things
that are. We have been coding some rules for these empty, broken
messages, but the trouble is that the systems we support often add
headers of their own before SNF sees the message and it is difficult
to predict what those headers are.

Upcoming features will solve this problem, but at the moment we have
no solid solution.

Declude folks posted a combination rule that seems to be working well
for them. Here is an excerpt from that post:

Looks like the following filter is working well. Using the HOLD action to 
verify filter success/failure. Caught 32 in the last 5 minutes.
 
Global.cfg
FILTERMSC filter D:\SmarterMail\declude\msc.txt x  0 0
 
msc.txt
HEADERS 30 NOTCONTAINS from:
HEADERS 30 NOTCONTAINS subject:
 
$default$.junkmail
FILTERMSC HOLD D:\smartermail\spool\msc
 
____

We will continue to look for rules to compensate in the mean time.

Thanks,

_M
