Thus, if I'm running SpamAssassin on server xx.yy.zz.ww, and I get a

Then you just need to add one line to the config on each server.
On server "xx.yy.zz.ww":
trusted_networks aa.bb.cc.dd
On server "aa.bb.cc.dd"
trusted_networks xx.yy.zz.ww
This is exactly what I'm doing. Yet when I send a spammy test message
from a server whose IP address is one that's specified by
trusted_networks, the message is getting a full SA score. I have
verified on the target server that IP address specified by
trusted_networks is the same one shown by the sending server, both from
a "relay=" line in the mail logs, and the top Received: line in the
received message.
With these settings, they will each see the other as trusted. Take a
look at the trusted_networks description on the
Mail::SpamAssassin::Conf man page for more details.
I've checked that one several times, but I don't see anything obvious
over what I'm already doing.
Is there any way of tracing the behavior, to see what's expected and how
things aren't matching when a message actually comes through?
If that doesn't get me where I need to go, I'll see about what I can
do about bypassing SpamAssassin checks for known trusted servers in
MIMEDefang, as suggested by another poster in this thread.
That's another possibility if you really trust those servers not to
relay any spam. The trusted_networks setting does not give quite that
level of trust.
Still something to consider. In this case, the servers in question are
really trusted.
Is there something else I might be missing?
Thanks for your help.
