My domain name, websiterepairguy.com, is causing
spamassassin to give a false positive.
Here are the tests that all give a false positive for
websiterepairguy.com:
1.5 URIBL_RHS_DOB Contains an URI of a new domain (Day Old Bread)
[URIs: websiterepairguy.com]
0.6 URIBL_PH_SURBL Contains an URL listed in the PH SURBL blocklist
[URIs: websiterepairguy.com]
4.5 URIBL_AB_SURBL Contains an URL listed in the AB SURBL blocklist
[URIs: websiterepairguy.com]
1.6 URIBL_WS_SURBL Contains an URL listed in the WS SURBL blocklist
[URIs: websiterepairguy.com]
1.2 URIBL_JP_SURBL Contains an URL listed in the JP SURBL blocklist
[URIs: websiterepairguy.com]
0.6 URIBL_SC_SURBL Contains an URL listed in the SC SURBL blocklist
[URIs: websiterepairguy.com]
I've checked here to see if my domain is blocked:
https://admin.uribl.com/
When I lookup websiterepairguy,com, I get the
following reply:
NOT Listed on URIBL
I only seem to have this problem under the following
circumstances:
1 -- I reply to an email that someone sends me
2 -- They reply back
It's the reply back that seems to trigger the false
positive. In other words, it is the fact that
websiterepairguy.com is embedded in the body
of the message that seems to trigger the false
positive.
At will, I can trigger a false positive by sending
myself an email that consists of the following:
1 -- Any subject line will do
2 -- One thing only in the body, the domain
name websiterepairguy.com.
I think I've simplified the problem to one thing
only and that is the appearance of my domain,
websiterepairguy.com, in the body of the message.
If websiterepairguy.com appears in the body of the
message, it triggers a false positive. Any ideas?
Sorry if this question has been answered before.
I did a search and did not come up with anything.
However, I'm so puzzled by this problem that I'm
not even sure what to do a search on.
Yesterday, I installed bind9. Not sure if that is
relevant but I thought I'd mention it. Also, I'm
using kmail under Debian Squeeze as my email
client.
Of course, how I invoke spamassassin makes
a difference. If I use the following invocation, I
have no problem:
spamassassin - L
However, if I invoke it this way, I get the false
positives:
spamassassin
Obviously, if I use only local spamassassin rules,
it is not a problem.
Is this a bug? Am I doing something wrong? I'm
baffled by this problem.
I'm attaching a file that demonstrates the problem
in its simplest form. The simplest possible manifestation
of this problem is an email I send to myself that consists
of nothing but websiterepairguy.com in the body.

Thanks in advance to anyone who might care to reply.
My sincere apologies if this is a common problem that
I've not discovered an answer to because of the clumsiness
of my google searches.
