As Matt suggested, I remove the old auto-whitelist and restarted MS -
but spam still slip through. Again it could be because I am forwarding
known spam from my own account to test. I also turned off auto white
list in mailscanner.conf and restarted MS. AWL is off but still spam not
detected:

X-Spam-Level: Spam-Level S
X-MailScanner: Found to be clean
X-MailScanner-SpamCheck: not spam, SpamAssassin (score=0, required 5)

I'll just have to wait for real spam to arrive. BTW, SpamAssassin itself
detects the test spam message just fine. I hope I haven't screwed-up a
perl module or perl itself!

Thanks,
