What is your interface to SpamAssassin? If this is amavisd-new, the 'Hits: -' is reported if SpamAssassin was not called, or it didn't produce a result (e.g. on a timeout). Here are some reasons why SpamAssassin would not be called: - message larger than $sa_mail_body_size_limit (with version 2.6.2 or older; with 2.6.3 a message passed to SA is just truncated); - recipient matches @bypass_spam_checks_maps; - sender is white- or blacklisted by amavisd; - bounce killer in action (but not in your case) Mark
