Shoot! I found the problem was actually my own. Please disregard. I had one other negative weight line in that filter that was producing the extra negative weight. This is actually something that can be fixed very effectively on my end by converting this filter over to END functionality with MAXWEIGHT.

Sorry for the confusion that this might have caused.

Scott,

I have a feeling that one of the recent changes created a bug in the way that scores are added in combination from the Global.cfg and the custom filter file when combined. Here's an example:

X-MailPure: ==================================================================
X-MailPure: IPNOTINMX: Failed, IP is not listed in MX or A records (weight 0).
X-MailPure: NOLEGITCONTENT: Failed, no legitimate content detected (weight 0).
X-MailPure: HELOBOGUS: Failed, bogus connecting server name (weight 4).
X-MailPure: DYNAMIC: Message failed DYNAMIC test (line 342, weight -3).
X-MailPure: ==================================================================
X-MailPure: Spam Score: 1
X-MailPure: Scan Time: 13:19:42 on 12/22/2003
X-MailPure: Spool File: D35b701a9017c3a95.SMD
X-MailPure: SMTP Sender: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
X-MailPure: Received From: 66-109-42-67.ip.reallyfastnet.com [66.109.42.67]



The DYNAMIC filter is scored as 3 points for a hit in Global.cfg


DYNAMIC filter C:\IMail\Declude\Filters\Dynamic.txt x 3 0

And within the filter file, it should have hit the following lines:


REVDNS -3 ENDSWITH .reallyfastnet.com REVDNS 0 CONTAINS -42- REVDNS 0 CONTAINS -109-

The total score should have been 0 points, but it scored a -3 instead. The order of the individual lines in the filter are as they appear above. Naturally this is a serious issue as it affects all counterbalanced filters and I need to change my settings pretty quick otherwise I'm going to be letting a bunch of spam through.

Thanks,

Matt
