Sorry,

Thought I did replay all, but did not.

I did find a whitelist line I missed.  I guess the third time IS the charm as the saying goes.  I will be monitoring her Inbox again today to see if that solves it.

The server is on a version of Linux that may have stopped getting updates so I suppose that is why the spamassassin version is old.  I will endeavor to update the server soon.

Thanks for all the answers!  I don't participate because I'm just good enough to maintain my customers email servers, but I really appreciate the expertise on this list.

Y'all have some fun,
Robert

I have a user that is getting many emails with obscene subjects.
Someone is spoofing the From to include the users domain so the email
is hitting "USER_IN_WHITELIST".  I have installed the plugins from
extremeshok and it has not stopped the problem.

remove whitelist_from in spamassassin, or change it to score -0.1

i will not argue on why whitelist_from even exists

The SUBJECT_FUCKBUDDY rule has a score of 3.0 .

change score to 300

upgrade to 3.4.4 btw

I won't argue with the recommendation to upgrade but his real problem is:

Someone is spoofing the From to include the users domain so the email is
hitting "USER_IN_WHITELIST"

That says somebody has taken the users' domain and added it to a "whitelist_from" statement. That is -not- a SA default.

So first kill that ill-advised whitelist_from

I did that previously, but I will check again.

Thanks all for the answers, I will read them all hopefully within the hour.
