I then ran the message through sa with -D. SA parsed all the "froms" and boiled them down (correctly) to [EMAIL PROTECTED] It even noted the forged HELO, but still it gave the Whitelist_from 100 pt. credit. OK, I thought, since SA is probably working fine, it must be my whitelist. I temporarily culled all the whitelist_from's from local.cf and ran the message through spamassassin -D. Eureka! No whitelist credit, and the message was correctly identified as spam. After a much more thorough examination of my rules, I found the culprit: whitelist_from *cnet.com insted of whitelist_from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Zapped by a missing "@". Thanks everyone for your comments, especially Matt whose suggestions got me to a fix. Ollie > > > -- |---------------------------| | Ollie Acheson | | Morristown, NJ | |---------------------------|
