What are you doing to SpamAssassin?
Post your configuration then perhaps someone can help you.
Dana may not have that information - saying "which our ISP uses" suggests
SA is not under their control.

Does your ISP bounce the messages back to you?
If so, are there any clues in the bounce as to why the messages are
scoring so high? Or does it just say "rejected by SpamAssassin" with no
details?
You really should be discussing this with your ISP's support desk or
postmaster. There's little we can do without data that you're likely
unable to provide. If your ISP has problems correcting the problem, then
they can ask here for help and provide the technical details needed to
troubleshoot the problem.
Something you could do is go to one of the various DNSBL websites and
check whether your internet gateway's public IP address is listed. Your
ISP may be doing something as simple as treating you as J. Random User
From The Internet rather than as one of their customers.

Subject: outlook 2007 "Test" email scores 30+
Outlook 2007 for most of the clients under our domain are now having
outgoing emails blocked by Spam Assassin, which our ISP uses. This
started in late September (Outlook/MS update??). Simple Text emails
with "hello" or "test" get scored over 30. If I switch the users over
to "windows mail" vs. "Outlook" We have no problems but this is
unacceptable, outlook is our standard. So the question is what is
Outlook 2007 doing to the outbound mail to cause it to be scored so
high with Spam Assassin. We are ready to move our mail accounts to a
different i...@!@ Any help is appreciated.
