Aye - sorry for that! I first wanted to open a bug-report at bugzilla,

No Problem... at least the problem triggered here before the public holiday and not in between ;-)

But anyway, can you tell me how you found out __STYLE_GIBBERISH_1 is
the culprit? I have no clue how to isolate that, since a strace does
not really help... Or is there some strace for perl which i do not
know?

hmm - in that case the way to go was to enable a commented out
debug-statement in the spamassassin source, which lists which rule is
evaluated. (on 3.4.2 installed on a Debian this is
in /usr/share/perl5/Mail/Spamassassin/Plugin/Check.pm - in
do_rawbody_tests - just comment out the if-condition for would_log

Then you see it in the debug-output

Ah, thank you very much for that input. So i can try that the next time i have a problem.

Best regards,
Matthias
