If you want to submit a new rule like this one, open a bug in the spamassassin bugzilla (see the "bugs" link on the spamassassin page) and then (after the bug is created) attach a file with this stuff in it.

Also you do want the tflags nice setup for your rule.

Since all of the scores for all of the rules are evolved with a genetic algorithm, the tflags nice stuff is a hint to the GA that it should start at -1.0 when trying to find scores for this rule. Otherwise it will start at +1.0 and evolve from there.

The "nice" stuff is no absolute guarantee that a rule won't cross over to the other side if there's a lot of spam that matches it, but it does at least give it a reasonable start place to evolve the score from.

I have just added a trusted X-Mailer to my local.cf.

- How do I submit this so that the next release of SA may integrate it in its default rules so that everyone
benefits from it ?


- has anyone seen spam coming from lotus notes ? We run this in our company and adding this simple
rule decreases the number of false positives a lot !


- What is the tflags xxxxx nice in the 20_anti_ratware.cf which has the other trusted X-Mailer definitions ?

header USER_AGENT_LNOTES X-Mailer =~ /^Lotus Notes Release \d\.\d\.\d /
describe USER_AGENT_LNOTES X-Mailer header indicates a non-spam MUA (Lotus Notes)
score USER_AGENT_LNOTES -2.5
