Basically, as of QS 1.15 (I think) Jason decided he wasn't going to trust the return value from spamassassin, as there have been a number of versions that don't work properly, so QS checks the values and marks the mail as spam itself. Unfortunately the test that is used is score >= threshold, which is true if they are both zero, which is the default case, as they both get set to zero if there are any problems, or if the scanning is skipped because the file is too big.
I have attached the patch that I use that specifically checks for score
and threshold = 0. This should only cause a problem if you have set your
threshold to 0.
The relevant line is below.
- if ($sa_max > $sa_score) {
+ if (($sa_max > $sa_score) || ($sa_max == 0 && $sa_score == 0)) {
Hope this helps.
