I received a piece of spam, that had a very large minus score (-79.6) When I checked to see why, I saw that the user faked the From and Return-Path to be from a domain that I whitelist. I thought SpamAssassin was smart enough to not be fooled by that? Without that 100pt adjustment, the spam score would have been 20.4!
