Thanks for this Abigail:

Abigail hasn't, but I have.


I would simply recommend that you  raise the score in the
local.cf file for the SA test BASE64_ENC_TEXT to near or
above your minimum spam threshhold. I have yet to see a
*valid* email that is Base-64 encoded.

Indeed. From now on such messages have a one-way ticket to the spam pit:

score BASE64-ENC-TEXT 100.0

You risk false positives. The result depends on what you ultimately do with your spam.


The latest SA versions will cope perfectly well with base64 encoded text. Maybe you're using an old version.

Best,

Tony
