All,
[Not sure if this is the right place to send this--please correct me if
I am in error]
At some time in the not too distant past, my otherwise reliable SA
system has broken in an odd way.
This example is characteristic of the problem:
Cheap Airline Tickets email received--clearly junk
x-spam-status reads: No, score=3.8 required=4.0
tests=BAYES_40,HTML_IMAGE_RATIO_02,
HTML_MESSAGE,HTML_MIME_NO_HTML_TAG,MIME_HTML_ONLY,RDNS_NONE,URIBL_BLACK
autolearn=no version=3.2.5
Assessment of this header at http://www.futurequest.net/docs/SA/decode/
yields:
Test Score Description
BAYES_40 0.000 Bayesian spam probability is 20 to 40%
HTML_IMAGE_RATIO_02 0.550 HTML has a low ratio of text to image area
HTML_MESSAGE 0.001 HTML included in message
HTML_MIME_NO_HTML_TAG 1.052 HTML-only message, but there is no HTML tag
MIME_HTML_ONLY 1.672 Message only has text/html MIME parts
RDNS_NONE 0.100 Delivered to trusted network by a host with no rDNS
URIBL_BLACK 1.961 Contains an URL listed in the URIBL blacklist
Total:
5.336
Clearly 5.336 does not equal 3.8.
My SA is 3.2.5 in a default config except that I have set global score
required to 4.0 with latest updates.
I have no idea how to regress and resolve this problem.
Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.
