You need to configure your trusted_networks. See this wiki article:
http://wiki.apache.org/spamassassin/TrustPath
OK, adding trusted_networks myIP to local.cf works. Now I get
3.5 HELO_DYNAMIC_IPADDR2 Relay HELO'd using suspicious hostname (IP addr 2)
which makes the spam score 8.9 which is considered as spam.
I have read that article before but assumed that it was only if your mail
server was
behind a NAT, which mine is not. Do other people on this list find that they
must set
this option in order for SA to avoid problems like I experienced?
If email comes to your machine via an MX record then you probably need
to trust your machine by its address on the Internet not (just) by
127.0.0.1.
