I've noticed that I never get any messages with a spam score higher than
14.9. I have suspected that SpamAssassin is dumping messages with a
score of 15 or higher. While perusing my logs today I found this entry...

Clearly the message higher than 14.9 (25.8) and SpamAssassin blocked the
delivery. This is probably due to something I put in my settings when I
first started using SpamAssassin years ago, but I can't find it. I've
checked the global local.cf and user local.cf files and they don't seem
to be causing it. I've tried to find another config file but there
aren't any. Where else can this be coming from?
I'm running Sendmail 8.14.2, SpamAssassin 3.2.5 and SpamAss-Milter 0.3.1
on Slackware 12.0.
Thanks,
