Ok. > When you remove the email address you should not see an AWL score, if > you still see it then you didn't remove it.

I removed the address, sent a mail message to [EMAIL PROTECTED], and AWL got no score. Half an hour later I sent another message and AWL got a negative score of about -1.1. Two hours later I sent yet another message and now AWL was at +0.370. And a message I sent just now got a score of +0.277. Is that normal? Amavisd is not involved in checking incoming mail that is retrieved via getmail. It passes the message directly to spamc. Amavisd only checks incoming mail for the domain the mailserver is final destination for, which is for the domain of the address I use to post to this list (pseudoterminal.org). On that note: checking the AWL scores for mail messages to *this* list from that address ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) shows that they are also a bit high-ish (the first message got +2.45, the second +2.25). I am not sure if that is wrong, but I am getting more and more confused about the AWL. I never had problems with it before but recently it really seems to score badly only for messages sent by me! Should I post the contents of both local.cf and user_prefs? They don't contain anything special as far as I can see, but something definitely feels wrong with my configuration. Why else would the AWL test get such scores? Thanks again for your reply and your time! Andreas -- Andreas Ntaflos Vienna, Austria GPG Fingerprint: 6234 2E8E 5C81 C6CB E5EC 7E65 397C E2A8 090C A9B4
