Julian,

I'm a bit confused on this new feature in 4.32.5.  I got a spam,
and the headers from MS look like:

X-Colby-MailScanner-SpamCheck: spam, SpamAssassin (score=8.079, required 5,
     BAYES_50 0.00, FORGED_MUA_OUTLOOK 2.57, FORGED_OUTLOOK_TAGS 1.00,
     FROM_HAS_MIXED_NUMS 0.26, HTML_60_70 0.11, HTML_FONTCOLOR_BLUE 0.10,
     HTML_FONTCOLOR_RED 0.10, HTML_FONTCOLOR_UNSAFE 0.10,
     HTML_FONT_BIG 0.27, HTML_MESSAGE 0.10, HTML_TITLE_EMPTY 0.12,
     MIME_HTML_ONLY 0.32, MSGID_FROM_MTA_SHORT 3.03)
X-Colby-MailScanner-SpamScore: 8

But I have:

Spam Score Number Format = %6.2f

so I was expecting:

X-Colby-MailScanner-SpamScore: 8.08

in my headers.  Am I not understanding what this feature does?

PS.  Love the "-v" feature that tells you what your perl module versions
are.  It would maybe help if this would do a "uname -a" and also pluck
out the MTA version number (this may be a PITA), eg for sendmail something
like: "/usr/lib/sendmail -d0.1 -bt < /dev/null | grep Version".
