6.3 points of his E-mail were because Spam Assassin saw his IP address in the DYNABLOCK.. That alone will trigger SA's filters, since by default only 5 points are need to be declared Spam. Even with the Priority Header issue he'd still get triggered.
He'd be triggering my SA if it weren't for the fact that his mail is actually coming from the list. If he where sending mail directly to me it would going to my spam dropbox because I send anything over 8 to the spam drop box.\ Pete ---- Peter P.

I had to manually add the X-Mailer entry in my previous version in squirrelmail/class/deliver/deliver.class/php. I have also been having some issues with spam software, but mine were pretty much resolved when I moved to 1.4.3a. I don't have your original post so I don't know what version that you are running. I hope this helps.
