SA/MS Testing

[Rodney Green]

Thanks Alex. I did as you said. 

Odd how when I run the message through the system, by telneting like you
said, and it gives me an SA score below 5. When I run the same message
through spamassassin using "spamassassin -t < messagefile" I see a much
higher score of 11.9. I noticed that when running "spamassasin -t" that
BAYES_99 is one of the tests listed but when I send the message through the
system I see no BAYES related tests in the message headers.

Try telnetting to port 25, doing a "HELO " followed by what the spammer said
his/her hello was, then "MAIL FROM:" what the spammer said the origin was,
"RCPT TO:" to you, then DATA, and finally, the message itself. A single
period, and QUIT.

Hello. Is there a way to re-inject a message into MailScanner so it will be
scanned again by MS/ClamAV/SpamAssassin? I've added some spam to my bayes DB
using sa-learn and would like to test sending the same spam through again
and see if it is filtered properly.

Thanks,
Rod
