my Centos server currently running spamassassin to filter spam email, it work together with mailscanner, it work fine before but suddently got a problem:

Nov 15 16:12:02 main MailScanner[4079]: Message A6D3969B8200.AE900 from x.x.x.x ([email protected]) to myemail.com is spam, SORBS-SPAM, SpamAssassin (not cached, score=2.797, required 4.5, HTML_MESSAGE 0.00, MIME_BASE64_TEXT 2.80)

The spam threshold score was 4.5, however, some messages judge as spam even it score is under 4.5 (like example above), could someone told me what happen??

Thanks a lot!!

  • Seems SORBS is reacting to the mail. Check with sorbs.net/lookup.shtml

  • I think what the comment above is trying to tell you is that it's the SORBS failure that's made MailScanner decide this is spam, even though SpamAssassin has cleared it. MailScanner uses more than just the SA score to decide whether something is spam or not. If you don't want that, don't use MailScanner; just have your MDA invoke SA directly, and classify accordingly.
