JH> What I'm asking is: JH> 1. Is the lack of a message-id header an accurate measure of spam? I think it is, but that's only from observing SPAM I receive; I rarely poke into the headers of my wanted mail. However, when my father used to do work at the NIH datacenter, email he sent from there never had a message ID. It was some mainframe based system, and that was several years ago. JH> 2. Is this a rule in SpamAssassin? I haven't seen it in any reports I don't see one off-hand, but there might be. You'll notice when you submit messages to SpamCop, it often detects that the msg-id was inserted by an intermediate mail relay. Perhaps that is a good test since many mail servers do this for you as a favor (eg, Postfix). -- =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Vivek Khera, Ph.D. Khera Communications, Inc.
