From: Charles Gregory <cgreg...@hwcn.org> Date: Wed, 22 Apr 2009 15:56:53 -0400 (EDT) Just curious if anyone has ever found a 'clean' way to handle the 'damage' done to the AWL when someone's mail is blocked by a false positive, and the sender is stupid enough to keep retrying the offending mail?
Meaning that the first message from the sender was incorrectly marked as spam and AWL then made sure that all subsequent messages from the same sender were also marked as spam? The easiest way to fix it is to smash the AWL entry with spamassassin --add-to-whitelist or remove the AWL entry using --remove-from-whitelist. I would rather not turn off AWL. I like the way it gives a negative score bias to frequent correspondents. But is there a (sub)setting to allow me to permit the negative bias, but *not* allow it to add a positive one? Nope - the only thing you can do is set the factor which acts on both positive and negative scores. And while I'm at it, can anyone verify whether 'constantcontact' is really a legit mail service or a spam haven? That's the FP that caused this issue.... they do email for various organizations. -jeff
