(note, even after complaints above, habeas still claims 'secure referrals': proof I think that SA should lower these scores A LOT.

host 41.233.149.63.sa-accredit.habeas.com.
41.233.149.63.sa-accredit.habeas.com has address 127.0.0.50


   *

     10 to 39 : *Personal, transactional, and Confirmed Opt In*

   *

     40 to 59 : Secure referrals and Single Opt In

   *

     60 to 99 : Checked but not accredited by Habeas.

HABEAS_ACCREDITED_SOI is 'opt in or better' (orig -4.3) their score 49-59.
HABEAS_ACCREDITED_COI is 'accredited or confirmed opt in or better' (orig -8) their score 10-39

https://issues.apache.org/SpamAssassin/show_bug.cgi?id=5921

since habeas does nothing about spammers, I set (including flags to take 'nice' off)

score HABEAS_ACCREDITED_SOI 2.5
tflags HABEAS_ACCREDITED_SOI net

score HABEAS_ACCREDITED_COI 0
tflags HABEAS_ACCREDITED_COI net

I added:
score HABEAS_UNCONFIRMED 8.0
tflags HABEAS_UNCONFIRMED net
header HABEAS_UNCONFIRMED eval:check_rbl('habeas-firsttrusted', 'sa-accredit.habeas.com.', '127\.\d+\.\d+\.[6789]\d')


even though spamassassin team says this is a habeas issue, there is enough documented proof that the only people who use habeas are email marketing companies, the very existence of an ip in the habeas network proves it is bulk email, commercial bulk email. the decision as to if your clients want (or should have) commercial bulk email is up to your TOS. If you are an ISP, you should NOT use these above rules if you have consumer clients. If you are the email administrator for a business, and your business forbids users to use their email address for personal use, then use them. If your marketing department has signed up for 'permission based email', have them whitelist the senders.

Some might even use different tests to blacklist them at the MTA level, graylisting won't help, these come from 'real' mail servers.
for postfix:
|smtpd_recipient_restrictions =
 {standard tests}
 reject rbl_client sa-accredit.habeas.com
