Ok, makes sense ... I never thought about whitelisting the list for the
simple fact that I never had a problem with the messages being marked as
spam.

I'll check into the bayes poisoning you mentioned; thanks for the tip!

Regards,
Matt.

Matthew, if you're running this list through SA without any whitelisting 
you've got serious problems that need fixing... For example.. autolearn 
will poison your bayes database.

It's a matter of course that this list WILL have spam quotes in it, and 
requires either whitelisting, procmail bypass, or custom rules to avoid 
tagging it.

And it won't matter if it's attached or not, it's still a part of the body, 
so will still match the same body rules. The reason people always ask for 
an attachment is so that they can easily feed the complete email, with 
original headers, into SA to reproduce a problem.
