Hello all:
Everything I have read indicates to me that I should stay away from
custom rules. My SA setup defines spam as a message with a score over 6,
ie ssssss. I have been getting a few messages that pop through that are
scored 5 sssss and are definitely spam. An example of the messages are
below.
****** My spam info used to be here******
Had to remove it to post message
I am wondering should I create a custom rule that would affect these
types of messages. I have lowered my SPAM threshold to 5?
The first thing you should do is determine why the ASF server rejected
it given that it's reject threshold is 10.0. If it's due to a time
affected test, such as a DNSBL or URIBL hit, then continue to look for a
solution to your problem. If it wasn't rejected for a DNS based test,
look for the reason why your machine didn't hit on the same rules that
the ASF machine did.
