I'm having a similar problem and I'm still unclear how to completely disable HTML defanging in a message. I have set 'defang_mime 0' in /etc/mail/spamassassin/sa-mimedefang.cf (for mimedefang) and /usr/share/spamassassin/10_misc.cf report_safe 0. What am I missing to completely disable HTML defanging?

For example, I get my "Daily Dilbert" cartoon in my inbox each day. All <img src=...> tags are defanged and I dont see the actual cartoon, but HTML declarations that can be rendered without the resources of an external web server, such as background color, and all text, remain intact. I assume the reason for this kind of behavior is to eliminate "beacons". If a spammer includes a reference to a resource on his web server, and can match up your email address with an entry in his web server logs, then you've just confirmed for the spammer that your email address is valid. By defanging HTML <img src=...> tags, your client wont query his web server by simply viewing your mail. Ken -----Original Message----- From: Troy R.

Is this the proper operation of module ? Say for instence a news letter that has html graphs in it, well the graphs are stripped out and you only have the text. Is this the way it should work ? and if so why ?? Thanks is advance .... Just trying to check on the proper operation of the system, any thoughts ?? -----Original Message----- From: Troy R.

LeBouef Sent: Thu 7/17/2003 5:47 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cc: Subject: [Mimedefang] HTML stripped from email I have modified the original mimedefang-filter and remarked out remove_redundent_html_parts in the filter. I can't receive any html mail. I receive the mail and all of the HTML is stripped out. Is there an easy fix for this being that I wish to receive HTML text. What can I do to fix this any help would be most appreciated.
