I don't understand that question. Bayes uses both, body tokens as well as header tokens. So that would be why, and how Bayes picks up those headers. Apparently, you are getting (much?) more spam than ham via that Yahoo account. According to Bayes, that header turns into a spammy sign, and if there are no stronger tokens, this one will show up. > X-Spam-Spammy: 1.000-4--0h-102s--0d--HX-FetchYahoo:2.12.0alpha3, > 1.000-2--0h-57s--0d--941207361 bayes_ignore_header X-FetchYahoo See the docs [1] for a more verbose explanation of bayes_ignore_header, but AFAICT this has been designed especially for cases like this. guenther -- who know he shouldn't post before he had his coffee [1] http://spamassassin.apache.org/full/3.2.x/doc/Mail_SpamAssassin_Conf.html#learning_options -- char *t="[EMAIL PROTECTED]"; main(){ char h,m=h=*t++,*x=t+2*h,c,i,l=*x,s=0; for (i=0;i<l;i++){ i%8? c<<=1: (c=*++x); c&128 && (s+=h); if (!(h>>=1)||!t[s+h]){ putchar(t[s]);h=m;s=0; }}}
