Hello, <br>
 <br>
I use MailScanner-4.33.3 which is configured for to use  Sendmail-8.12.10
+ SpamAssassin-2.64 + Mc-affee, on my server under Solaris8.<br>
It works fine except for one point :&nbsp; The SA report doesn't appear in  the
body of tagged spam mails. <br>
 <br>
The options by default in the configuration (Mailscanner.conf and  spam.assassin.prefs.conf)
says to insert the report at the top of the  body, and my configuration are
the same as default. However, in the header of each tagged spam mail, i've
a report ( X-Mailscanner-SpamCheck: ...spamassassin...score...required...)<br>
 <br>
I've verified the options, my configuration files don't specify to make  report
only for header. I can send my configuration files. I've tried many options
in the configuration  files and I still don't have any report in the body.
<br>
<br>
I've found a partial answer in FAQ (number 25 - jointed at the end of this
e-mail) but is there not an issue ? <br>
Have I missed the answer in the archives, if yes could you send me the good
archive sample ?<br>
 <br>
Thanks for reply. <br>
 <br>
Lionel. <br>

<i>Sample of MailScanner FAQ :<br>
<br>
25 .Why can't I get MailScanner to process some SpamAssassin options?<br>
<br>
MailScanner only uses 3 pieces of information returned from SpamAssassin:
</i>
<ol>
  <li><i>The number of hits scored </i></li>
  <li><i>The threshold above which a message is deemed to be spam </i></li>
  <li><i>The list of matching rule names </i></li>
</ol>

<p><i> So changing SpamAssassin items like the report style (use_terse_report)
will have no effect as everything else is discarded. </i></p>

<p><i> This was coded by design to reduce the number of headers MailScanner
has to parse.</i> </p>
