So you're saying that the BAYES_99 mail that is being delivered is due to the configuration of my MTA (Postfix), not SpamAssassin?
I checked my Postfix config files (main.cf, master.cf) and neither have anything about it, so I would think that SpamAssassin is the one deciding on which spam to drop and which spam to let through. If that isn't the case, any idea what file I need to edit to block the BAYES_99 spam?
