Apologies  for posting a dumb question. I checked the archives and found
nothing appropriate.

I have this set. My question is: if SpamAssasin can do it and
MailScanner is running a stock SpamAssassin, why do I only get a message
like:
Our MailScanner believes that the attachment to this message sent to you

    From: spam at wherever.com
 Subject: Try our lovely Spam

is Unsolicited Commerial Email (spam). Unless you are sure that this
message
is incorrectly thought to be spam, please delete this message without
opening
it. Opening spam messages might allow the spammer to verify your email
address.

Whereas a stock SA install running via procmail provides a more detailed
report.

It is a significant hassle getting the header
information since simply forwarding the delivered Spam report does not
include the headers meaning repeated requests to disinterested users for
more information further increasing the annoyance all round.

I am currently installing MailWatch and this may help, but I do have
some users that are generally interested in this information and provide
excellent feedback about how well the spam detection is working.
