I am using Spamassassin 3.2.4-1ubuntu1.1. Spamassassin is used by my Exim server with spamd.
The problem is have is that sometimes I get RBL hits eventhrough the sender is using a valid smarthost. Example: Received: from fmmailgate04.web.de ([217.72.192.242]) by myMailServer with esmtp (Exim 4.69) (envelope-from <x...@web.de>) id 1MP2VJ-0002cW-7J for myEmailAddress; Fri, 10 Jul 2009 00:54:17 +0200 Received: from web.de by fmmailgate04.web.de (Postfix) with SMTP id 784E0617C621 for <myEmailAddress>; Fri, 10 Jul 2009 00:54:08 +0200 (CEST) Received: from [213.39.158.25] by freemailng0206.web.de with HTTP; Fri, 10 Jul 2009 00:54:06 +0200 Date: Fri, 10 Jul 2009 00:54:06 +0200 Message-Id: <1160922...@web.de> MIME-Version: 1.0 From: x...@web.de To: myExmailAdress Subject: blabla Precedence: fm-user Organization: http://freemail.web.de/ X-Provags-Id: V01U2FsdGVkX18lP5sKSYPx3TgWHEN1Z7L2NW5G+X9Sks0ysU4QuxLtgDrif soaQGoAe2gbxmEtxcXfIJQCtJ44ojT8Zmcm0H6ShN663CUEajdFvPtO4mHtn w== Content-Type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-15 Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable X-Spam-Score: -0.4 (/) X-Spam-Report: Spam report: If you have any questions, see postmas...@dwsa.de for details.

The web.de server (217.72.192.242 ) which delivered the email to my exim is not listed in any rbl ist but the address the sender used to deliver the email to the web.de smarthost (213.39.158.25) is. As far as I understand SpamAssassin is supposed to just check the ip that directly delivered the email to my server but not the IP the email is originally from (as that woundn't make any sense as almost everyone is using dyn ips...). I would really appreciate some hints what is going wrong here and how to fix that. Thanks!
