Hello,

I've received a few spams where the AWL has assigned a large negative score.
I've attached the headers from a spam I received today "Kobe's Court"
(haha).  The email address  that this came from and went to are, to me,
pretty obvious indications of spam which is why I'm having trouble
understanding why the AWL would assign a negative score at all.  By looking
at these headers, can anyone suggest a fix that would correct the AWL
database and stop this from happening in the first place?

I am running SA 2.55 with qmail-scanner 1.16.  I have not changed the
default AWL settings.

Thank you,

James
