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.

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.
