MailScanner and Zimbra

DMARC and BAYES blocked that email.

It would be interesting to get/see the details of the “DMARC_” rules on the Zimbra server.  Zimbra must have added DMARC support to Spamassassin.  I wonder if they used opendmarc with custom SA rules to read the opendmarc headers.

Same for LOCAL_MAILSCANNER_SPAM.  I would like to see that rule.  In a Zimbra environment, you may want to use MailScanner to score only and not block to utilize the built-in Zimbra spam/ham handling.

The old web site used to have some tips. See
<https://web.archive.org/web/20150315051129/http://mailscanner.info/gettingthebest.html<https://web.archive.org/web/20150315051129/http:/mailscanner.info/gettingthebest.html>>.
Some of this is out of date, but we should have similar info on the
current web site.
