Score on attachments

[Martin Hepworth]

Are you setting mailscanner.conf so every email gets its spam scores in the
header? Could be somethings missfiring like autowhitelisting (which i
always disable anyway)

Make sure following are set so youll get that in the headers


Detailed Spam Report = yes

Include Scores In SpamAssassin Report = yes

Always Include SpamAssassin Report = yes

Spam Score Number Format = %5.2f
