I haven't figured out a way to get Thunderbird to allow me to

are no headers in the email with names like you mentioned. There is
only the X-Spam-Status header and X-Spam-Flag header that appear to
be anywhere related to SA.
If you're not seeing a breakdown of the spam test, you should
configure SA to add it if you can. Run "man Mail::SpamAssassin::Conf"
for information on how to add that report.
I'm running ISC BIND in my server. But it only serves my own
domains' records. I guess it forwards to my Peer1 host DNS servers
to resolve anything that is not local. Is that what you are
referring to? What would I do to get around this problem?
Set it to resolve recursively instead of by forwarding. A recursive
resolver will seek out unknown answers by itself instead of asking an
upstream resolver that's being shared and rate-limited. There's
documentation elsewhere that describes how to do this, as it varies by
what named you are using.
This is encouraging. I looked up how to set recursion in Bind. It
looks like it's just requires adding a field to the options:
|allow-recursion { any; }; |But it lists other options such as
allow-query, allow-query-cache, etc. Is recursion the only one that
might be affecting SA? Or should I enable other options?
Jerry,
Considering you've paid for "SpamAssassin in a Box" and that it probably
doesn't support the full feature set which is developed for *nix
systems, it may be wiser you contact JAM Software's support and get them
to walk you through a sensible setup.
Once you've gone through the basics and got your feet wet, you may
suddenly feel comfortable to start tuning.
The SpamAssassin Docs and Wiki are full of helpful info which should
help you go through the bits of internals you need to do your job.
