I've been testing a few rule changes to spamassassin and wondered why
email from the mailscanner list is now showing up like this ?
Spam Report:
Score Matching Rule Description -2.60 BAYES_00 Bayesian spam
probability is 0 to 1%
0.00 HTML_MESSAGE HTML included in message
0.06 HTML_TEXT_AFTER_BODY HTML contains text after BODY close tag
0.03 HTML_TEXT_AFTER_HTML HTML contains text after HTML close tag
0.04 MIME_QP_LONG_LINE Quoted-printable line longer than 76 chars
0.42 URIBL_AB_SURBL Contains an URL listed in the AB SURBL blocklist
3.21 URIBL_OB_SURBL Contains an URL listed in the OB SURBL blocklist
1.46 URIBL_WS_SURBL Contains an URL listed in the WS SURBL blocklist
0.27 USERPASS URL contains username and (optional) password
All I did was add the following lines to /etc/mail/spamassassin/local.cf
score MIME_BASE64_TEXT 1.9
score URIBL_SBL 3.0
Because I wanted any BASE64 text to get a higher score (which seems to
work well and it gets all of those 'penny stock' spams for example), and
I wanted any URLs listed in SURBL to get a higher score.
Does anyone know if/why is the mailscanner site/url listed in these BLs ?
Or am I missing something ?
Cheers,
Brian.
