Spamassassin scores it correctly. The Precedence header is not interfering with that side of things at all. The problem comes in once it has been classified as spam. Amavisd-new allows me to configure what to do with it, deliver it, drop it, bounce it. Not unreasonably, if the message claims to be Precedence: junk then Amavis will not notify the sender of anything. This is therefore not a good test of whether the set-up is configured as I would wish. (Especially as spammers don't mark their junk as junk!) > Yeah, just imagine some spammer adding a Precedence header... I'm sure that if they thought it would help their spam get it through, they would add it in :-) or should that be :-( All the best Geoff UK-Human Genome Mapping Project-Resource Centre, Hinxton, Cambridge, CB10 1SB, UK Tel: +44 1223 494530 Fax: +44 1223 494512 E-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: VM Ware With VMware you can run multiple operating systems on a single machine.
