I am using SpamAssassin 2.44 and SpamAss-Milter 0.1.3a with Sendmail
8.12.3.  Everything is working perfectly for the most part.  I recently
turned off the RBL checking in Sendmail and turned on the checking in
SpamAssassin.  I like the more granular control over RBLs in SpamAssassin
isntead of the black and white reject/accept method used by Sendmail.

Anyway, I notice messages getting through and they are definitely coming
from an IP address that is on an RBL that SpamAssassin should check.
It works some times but not most of the time.

For example, a message was delivered to my server from IP 200.199.64.141.
This address is blacklisted on OSIRU, DSBL, SPAMCOP, and many others.
However, no RBLs are listed in the SpamAssassin report.  (And yes, I have
enabled SPAMCOP by setting a score of 4.)  I know the RBL functionality
works some times because RBL checks are sometimes listed in the
SpamAssassin report.

Here's the report from the message that came through on that IP:

        tests=BAD_CREDIT,BE_AMAZED,BE_BOSS,BIG_FONT,COMPLETELY_FREE,
              CTYPE_JUST_HTML,DATE_IN_PAST_12_24,DEAR_SOMEBODY,DIET,
              FORGED_AOL_RCVD,FOR_FREE,FREE_GRANT,FREE_MONEY,
              FROM_ENDS_IN_NUMS,GUARANTEE,HOME_EMPLOYMENT,
              HTML_FONT_COLOR_BLUE,HTML_FONT_COLOR_RED,
              HTML_FONT_FACE_ODD,LINES_OF_YELLING,MISSING_MIMEOLE,
              MONEY_BACK,MORTGAGE_OBFU,NORMAL_HTTP_TO_IP,NO_QS_ASKED,
              NO_REAL_NAME,ONLY_COST,ORDER_NOW,RISK_FREE,SAVE_MONEY,
              SAVE_THOUSANDS,SPAM_PHRASE_08_13,SUB_FREE_OFFER,
              SUSPICIOUS_RECIPS,USER_AGENT_OE,WEIRD_PORT,
              X_MSMAIL_PRIORITY_HIGH,X_PRIORITY_HIGH

Fortunately in this case the message had a really high score anyway, but a
lot of messages are getting through that should have much higher scores
because of being on RBLs.

Any ideas?
