This says that the message is NOT spam. Bayes in particular is convinced that it was ham, and has auto-learned it as such. It looks like your Bayes database is corrupt and will need to be rebuilt at some point. However, before doing that, we need to figure out why all this hit was date-in-future. I'm a little concerned that that initial Received header from Qmail may be keeping SA from analyzing the return headers. This could case a lot fo the net tests to fail. Hiwever, maybe that header is ok. Others that know more about received headers than I do will look at it. If that spam had been in English the body text would have nailed it. "Greencard lottery" is pretty much a guaranteed spam indicator all by itself. This looks like a case where a few of the rules for these things could profitably be translated to German, by someone that speaks both languages. (I don't, or I'd just do it.) There is a good chance though that register-usa.com should have hit SURBL. This makes me think your net tests aren't working. Since this is 3.0.4, they should be by default. Why don't you run "spamassassin --lint -D" and post the output. My guess is you either have a problem with the Net::DNS version, or init.pre insn't installed correctly. (Of course you might be starting SA with the -L parameter that disables net tests.) Loren
