I have a MIMEDefang(2.63)+SpamAssassin(3.1.9) setup that is catching a lot of spam, but specific spam messages are slipping through. It appears to be fairly consistent day-to-day.
If the email is a HTML message, spamassassin will hit on the HTML_MESSAGE rule and that's it. These spam emails are obvious as they contain key words and phrases that should be hitting on other rules. I have a feeling MIMEDefang may be inhibiting the process somehow, since if I take one of these spam messages that got through to my inbox and run it manually through spamassassin using the command: "spamassassin -t < spamemail > spamemail.out" it will score it appropriately and mark it as spam. Again, this happens if the spam email is sent as an HTML message. If the spam is sent as plain text, I don't notice any problems with the scoring. Any help and suggestions for things to look at to shed some light on what might be going on here would be greatly appreciated. I have created a similar posting on the MIMEDefang list as well, however I have not received any responses. Thank you very much. -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/SpamAssassin%2BMIMEDefang-HTML-messages-Scoring-tp15717408p15717408.html Sent from the SpamAssassin - Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
