We are using MessageLabs for our most of our inward mails.  However, we
also get mails from other places as well.  In order to get rid of spam,
we have installed the latest version of spamassassin, which is set to
reject any mail at smtp time if the score is over 12.  What I find
peculiar is some mails from MessageLabs are not scoring as high as the
one scored by spamassassin.   

Below is the example of the header which has been rejected at SMTP time,

Any comment will be appreciated.
