What version of MailScanner do you have? 

And out of curiosity, do you have the following both present? 

/etc/MailScanner/spam.assassin.prefs.conf 

/etc/MailScanner/spamassassin.conf

Mark, 

It is a MailScanner issue (I think) 

When I run the message through SA directly by the following command: 

spamassassin -t -p /etc/MailScanner/spam.assassin.prefs.conf < message.txt 

I get a SPF_PASS 

pts rule name description

but as stated before; the "live" message that went through my mailscanner 

X-vdbeu-MailScanner-SpamCheck: not spam, SpamAssassin (not cached,
	score=-1.786, required 5, BAYES_00 -1.90, HTML_MESSAGE 0.00,
	KAM_DMARC_STATUS 0.01, MIME_HTML_ONLY 0.10, RCVD_IN_DNSWL_NONE -0.00,
	RCVD_IN_MSPIKE_H4 0.00, RCVD_IN_MSPIKE_WL 0.00, SPF_HELO_NONE 0.00) 

So, I don't get it 

MailScanner --link reports nothing weird

Assuming you are talking about the SPF_PASS rule in the SpamAssassin 
report in the X-vdbeu-MailScanner-SpamCheck: header, this is a 
SpamAssassin question, not a MailScanner question per se. You might do 
better on a SpamAssassin list. See
