I just got a spam which scored 13.80 but had a -4.8 point AWL adjustment. I
don't understand how it could have been whitelisted because it is obviously
porn spam. It even rates a BAYES_70. How is it possible that it was
whitelisted?
I can post the message source if it is appropriate to do so.

Howdy all -
Currently we use procmail recipes to put tagged spam into an IMAP spam
folder for each user. We also have a spam-to-learn folder for each user to
put false negatives in. We run 'sa-learn --spam --mbox' against the spam
and spam-to-learn folders for each user, and 'sa-learn --ham --mb
We accomplish the internal relay a bit differently, but works very nicely.
Instead of creating user accounts on the sendmail relay for every user, we
create aliases.. for example, I have

tony.nelson: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
tony_nelson: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
internal.starpoint.
If you are using Red Hat or an RPM based distro, I have posted source RPMs
for SpamAssassin and spamass-milter along with a sample sendmail.mc file at
ftp://mail.camerontech.com/pub/spam. I use these tools on several
relay-only servers in front of Exchange and Notes servers. The customers
