Hi all,
we are a German company and 99 per cent of our daily email communication
is in German language. There is only a very small amount of legitimate
English email coming from some well known sources (mailing lists like
[EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED] and so on), any other non-German email
can be considered as spam.
Excerpt from local.cf:
required_score 5.0
...
whitelist_from [EMAIL PROTECTED]
whitelist_from [EMAIL PROTECTED]
...
ok_languages de
...
score UNWANTED_LANGUAGE_BODY 4.5 4.5 4.5 4.5
...
SA version is 3.1.
All messages scored >= 5.0 are moved to a separate email account, we
have had only very few false positives so far. I can see that many
messages are correctly caught as spam because of UNWANTED_LANGUAGE_BODY
rule.
But there are also some messages where UNWANTED_LANGUAGE_BODY rule is
applied but with a too low score, example:
----
X-Spam-Checker-Version: SpamAssassin 3.1.0 (2005-09-13) on iserv.planat.de
X-Spam-Level: *
X-Spam-Status: No, score=1.8 required=5.0 tests=AWL,BAYES_00,HTML_40_50,
HTML_LINK_PUSH_HERE,HTML_MESSAGE,UNWANTED_LANGUAGE_BODY autolearn=no
version=3.1.0
----
You see: UNWANTED_LANGUAGE_BODY rule applies to this message, but does
not give the desired score, otherwise the score would be >= 4.5 and not
1.8. Or do you see anything here that could give a *negative* score?!
TIA
Gerhard
AWL is auto white list, and Bayes_00 should reduce the score also I think.
