I'm running MS 3.24-1 with SA 2.42 on Trustix 1.5/Perl 5.6.1. It appears
that SA correctly identifies spam but through some interaction with MS,
the message is not tagged as spam. Here's an example header:
X-Spam-Flag: YES
X-Spam-Level: Spam-Level SSSSSSSSSSS
X-Spam-Checker-Version: SpamAssassin 2.42 (1.115.2.14-2002-10-04-exp)
X-Spam-Report: 11.40 hits, 5 required;
* -1.2 -- User-Agent header indicates a non-spam MUA (Mutt)
* -0.5 -- Found a User-Agent header
* 3.4 -- BODY: Claims you can be removed from the list
* 1.0 -- BODY: Multi Level Marketing mentioned
* 0.8 -- BODY: List removal information
* 0.7 -- BODY: List removal information
* 0.6 -- BODY: No Inventory

X-MailScanner: Found to be clean
X-MailScanner-SpamCheck: not spam, SpamAssassin (score=-2.5, required 5,
AWL)
Here's a sample syslog message with debug turned on:

I'm not sure where to look. I've reinstalled SA as well as all
associated modules for MS and SA. Any other diagnostics I can run?
Thanks for your suggestions,
Stephen
