And it was still marked spam? That sounds like a bug and you should post the full message with headers including the spam report if you want it to be possible to fix it. Or perhaps you mean that you have now added it to your whitelist? > To the best of my knowledge, [EMAIL PROTECTED] does not send spam. > It's mail for an affiliate program that I signed up for. In general it is a good idea to add mail from lists that you sign up for to your whitelist. If most mail from such a list has content that does not look like spam and you have autowhitelist turned on, then that saves you the work of adding the list address by hand. Any mailing list that has anything to do with money is likely to get flagged as spam if it is not whitelisted. > If this isn't the right forum to report "false positive" results, then > what is? Oh this is the right place as far as I know. And I am just another user, not an active developer on the project. I was just expressing my opinion that the content of the email message that you showed looks like spam. The only identifying characteristic in that mail is that it is from [EMAIL PROTECTED] which you say never spams. If that were so popular a list that a large percentage of users of spamassassin would subscribe to it, perhaps it could be added to the whitelist or the rules that spamassassin is delivered with, especially if they were so large an organization that no spammer would ever dare to forge their From address just to slip by a spamassassin filter. But neither is the case, so it is best left to the individual subscribers to add to their whitelist. It is possible that there is something in the full email headers that would distinguish this mail from spam, and if you showed those headers we might see something that could be put into a rule that would let this message get through. It is also possible that Craig Hughes will look at your message and decide to add something for richdad.com mail. I'll be surprised, but he's the one to decide what goes into the released package and what is left for individual customization. -- sidney _______________________________________________ Spamassassin-talk mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/spamassassin-talk
