The original question is a restatement of yesterday's "how to force SA to scan mail that send from php" post. My reading of the situation (which might be wrong) is this: The Original Poster wants to do some sort of project that will give statistics on the accuracy of spamassassin. He has followed a recipe that installs qmail with qmail-scanner, and has got a php script that will send mail to the mail server. But the mail server appears to skip the scan for local messages, so the project is getting no statistics. The solution to this problem is to work out how qmail-scanner decides what to scan, and change it. Unfortunately, I can't help there. I would try doing a manual smtp connection from the local machine (telnet localhost 25) and take it from there. But my worry is that sending a load of e-mail via a php form will produce hopeless project results, because it will effectively only test the value of spamassassin's body checks. But perhaps that's part of the plan. -- Chris
