Thanks for the info. I will forward the second part to the Merchant Order Form folks and cut the score down to 1.5 for now.

Is there risk in eliminating this score?] This rule fires off anytime an email has a From: address that is a @yahoo.com, but doesn't appear to have ever passed through a yahoo.com mailserver. The rule is intended to detect things such as spammers faking from [EMAIL PROTECTED], and then relaying through some server in Korea. Since you're using a web-order system, you should definitely disable this rule. >MSGID_FROM_MTA_SHORT Message-Id was added by a relay >[Any idea why this happens and how I might send the orders - which are >going from my web site to myself - without having this problem?] This sounds like a limitation of your merchant system.. to save the work of generating a message ID, they decided to rely on the MTA to create one for them.. Typicaly bulk-spam tools don't bother to generate message ID's, but most mail clients do, making this a decent spam sign... again, since you're using a web-store merchant system, kill it. ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: The SF.net Donation Program.
