So you're saying that the BAYES_99 mail that is being delivered is due to the configuration of my MTA (Postfix), not SpamAssassin? I checked my Postfix config files (main.cf, master.cf) and neither have anything about it, so I would think that SpamAssassin is the one deciding on which spam to drop and which spam to let through. If that isn't the case, any idea what file I need to edit to block the BAYES_99 spam? Are you using any content filter like Amavis or MailScanner in your setup ? If no and you are directly delivering the mail to spamd using postfix then don't expect the spams to be stopped or quarantined it will be tagged as spamassassin is just a tagging agent and not a filtering agent. Usually people do put in a content filter (e.g Amavis ) after their MTA which scans the mails for viruses and spams by invoking spamassassin. Can you please confirm whether are you using any content filter or not ?
