<P><FONT SIZE=2>I am running MailScanner and SpamAssassin, and am VERY pleased with the</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>results! All though, I have noticed a problem, which is probably something</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>in my configuration. Every once and awhile some spam will come through with</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>a rating of 19 or 21, which is well above the limit I have set at 5. If you</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>look in the header it looks like this:</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2>X-Priority: 1</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>X-MSMail-Priority: High</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>X-MailScanner-Information: Please contact the ISP for more information</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>X-MailScanner: Found to be clean</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>X-MailScanner-SpamCheck: not spam (whitelisted), SpamAssassin (score=19.5,</FONT>

</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2>Obviously it is getting through because it is whitelisted. I dont have</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>these guys whitelisted anywhere though. Can someone please point me in the</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>right direction? Any help, as always, will be GREATLY appreciated. Thanks!</FONT>
