I dug deeper into the problem of why I was not getting the
X-Spam-Relay-Countries header added to my mail, and I think I understand
things a bit better. (The goal is to see what countries the few false
negatives are going through.)
First of all, the correct add_header command seems to not be:
add_header all Relay-Country _RELAYCOUNTRY_
Instead, it should be:
add_header all Relay-Countries _RELAYCOUNTRY_
I saw that the plugin was active by running spamassassin -D.
Also, by running spamassassin manually with a known piece of spam, I
could see the X-Spam-Relay-Countries header being added but not when I ran
spamc through sendmail/spamass-milter.
The problem was that the headers were not be passed through by (drum roll
please): spamass-milter even though I am *not* using the -M option. Also,
I am using spamass-milter to reject mail during reception (via -r 5)
I'm not looking for spamass-milter support from here (unless someone knows
what to do), but I do like the way my system works and I'd like to
continue using a milter to reject the spam. Are other people using milters
with sendmail that don't suffer from this problem?
TIA

=>No. You will only see it if you add the appropriate "add_header" line.
Ok. I just modified my setup but no joy. The current configuration is
below. Also, messages are coming through with:
X-Spam-Status: No, score=1.4 required=5.0 tests=AWL,BAYES_60,RDNS_NONE
autolearn=no version=3.2.5
X-Spam-Checker-Version: SpamAssassin 3.2.5 (2008-06-10) on
saturn.syslang.net
Is there anything obvious I'm missing?
TIA
