hello, I am looking for some help with an issue I am having. Some spam has been getting through and it looks like when it comes through a bunch of rules are not getting hit, but when I run it manually as the same user that my mimedefang runs as it scores well above the threshold. I am running on RedHat Linux 4 with sendmail->mimedefang->spamassassin(3.1.7). I am running it manually as the same user mimedefang uses so I don't think that is the issue. Could it be timing out or something? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, David Here is an example. Here is the MSG.0 file that gets quarantined by Mimedefang. -bash-3.00$ more MSG.0 Spam detection software, running on the system "", has identified this incoming email as possible spam. The original message has been attached to this so you can view it (if it isn't spam) or label similar future email. If you have any questions, see the administrator of that system for details.
