Watermark checking doesn't work

[Mikael Syska]

Hi,

I'm having the same problem ... using all default settings ...
watermark beeing added ... but its still tagged as spam, but it should
be returned to the user ..

MailScanner-4.67.6_1 from freebsd ports tree.

Use Watermarking = yes
Add Watermark = yes
Check Watermarks With No Sender = yes #
%rules-dir%/watermarking.rules, this is my next project, as only some
will use this as there SMTP server
Treat Invalid Watermarks With No Sender as Spam = spam
Check Watermarks To Skip Spam Checks = yes
Watermark Secret = %org-name%-Secret
Watermark Lifetime = 604800
Watermark Header = X-%org-name%-MailScanner-Watermark:

Am I also missing something here ... or is it broken on FreeBSD 7.0 ?

best regards
Mikael Syska
