I am a first-time user of SpamAssasin. While testing content for a
client I received the below results:
0.6 HTML_90_100 BODY: Message is 90% to 100% HTML
0.9 HTML_IMAGE_RATIO_04 BODY: HTML has a low ratio of text to image area
2.3 HTML_IMAGE_ONLY_12 BODY: HTML: images with 800-1200 bytes of words
2.1 HTML_MISSING_CTYPE Message is HTML without HTML Content-Type
2.3 HTML_SHORT_LINK_IMG_2 HTML is very short with a linked image
Can anyone tell me where I can get explanations or reasons why the
scores are high? Are these tactics used by spammers?
Spam messages generally hit the above rules.
The following URL explains how the scores are assigned:
