Hello Roman,
Perhaps we could get other advices but i think
learning is still a good thing.
About the old BAYSES-base, i've no opinion, i think it may still be
valuable but i've no idea of the accuracy.
Best regards,

Why yellow list? The idea of a yellow list is to prevent cert

Currently I have mail.mydomain.com as 10.

Yeah, I was going to comment that the rule might be a little over-

On the other hand, if it passes lint there is nothing wrong with it.

Hello Roman,
It's not a problem with SA but with the bayes's concept instead.
Keeping an "big" but "old" bayes's database doesn't mean
you'll catch the new spam.
Each day, spammers change them in order to evade detection so in
order to be as accurate as possible you need to learn often.

Hello,
I would bet that I restarted amavis and spamassassin, but it seems I
didn't :-(. I have restarted amavis and spamassassin and AWL is not
being check now. The only thing to do is to comment the line
in /etc/spamassassin/v310.pre.
Sorry for the bothers.
