Howdy, all -

As I mentioned in a previous email, I'm trying to bump up the score for BAYES_999. I have not messed with SA in years, but I'm trying to get back into it. Sorry if this is a silly question.

I tried to add the following line to /etc/mail/spamassassin/local.cf, but it's not firing:

[root@mail-east ~]# cat /etc/mail/spamassassin/local.cf
# These values can be overridden by editing ~/.spamassassin/user_prefs.cf
# (see spamassassin(1) for details)

# These should be safe assumptions and allow for simple visual sifting
# without risking lost emails.

score SPAM_999 3

required_hits 5
report_safe 0
rewrite_header Subject [SPAM _SCORE_]

What I am seeing when I run spamassassin -D < mail/INBOX/spam looks like this:

If I'm reading it correctly, it is NOT bumping up the score for BAYES_999, it's only adding the default 0.2 to it.

I'm running this on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8.5. The SA package is spamassassin-3.4.4-4.el8.x86_64.

What am I doing wrong?
