In SpamAssassin's FAQ, I found this page, OeSixForwardFps (http://wiki.apache.org/spamassassin/OeSixForwardFps), which mentioned: "If the domain name in the message ID does not match the domain name in the From: header, the message may hit the SpamAssassin 'MID_ADDED_BY_RELAY' rules, and therefore may cause a false positive." I want to find further information about the MID_ADDED_BY_RELAY rule. So, I searched for the keyword "MID_ADDED_BY_RELAY" on google but found that the keyword "MID_ADDED_BY_RELAY" did not exist in other places on the web. Is MID_ADDED_BY_RELAY an old rule that does not exist in SpamAssassin any more? Thanks.
