Dear Colin, Thanks for your reply.
I've used SA with MIME defang for a while now, and it hasn't gotten me into any trouble before. SA has acutally been quite amazing! It's filtrating most mails as spam, and I'm satisfied with it this far. But when I added this domain, it cought WAY too much. I've run much of the mails pass 'spamassassin -t < testmail' and they actually score 0.9 and stuff like that, and they're still tagged as spam! It's rather amazing. So I figure there's something very wrong with my SA right now :( Best regards, Haakon Nilsen ----- Original Message ----- From: "Colin A.
