If they're running spamd or generally anything other than the "spamassassin" script, rules in user_prefs are ignored. > 3) When a message comes, SA reads all the rules and tags the header > according those that give positive values? It depends how they have things setup. SA is likely running as a daemon, so all the rules and such are read once and then used for each message coming in. Rules with a score of 0 aren't run. There may be header markup, depends on the configs and how it's run. > 4) What is going on? You really want to talk to the hosting provider about their setup and what they allow on their systems. -- Randomly Selected Tagline: "Every year it's the same darn thing.
