SeanC Posted January 5, 2005 Share Posted January 5, 2005 I sent an email to myself using Mozilla Thunderbird 1.0 on my WinXP machine using my ISP's ASMTP server. I sent it as from <me>[at]spamcop.net to <user>[at]hotmail.com which spamcop in turn POPs. After a while of waiting for it to appear in my inbox I check my Held Mail folder and sure enough it was there. I looked at the headers and say that SpamAssassin gave it a score of 4.2. See the snipped headers below: X-Message-Info: JGTYoYF78jFQHoK+bAYW1lNCWmnAiyLF X-spam-Level: **** X-spam-Status: hits=4.2 tests=X_MESSAGE_INFO version=3.0.0 X-SpamCop-Disposition: Blocked SpamAssassin=4 I'm able to get around on a computer pretty well, but I have no idea why that header was created or why SmapASsassin believes it's spam. ps. is there a way to get a listing of email header/body type values that SpamAssassin uses? I saw a partial list in another post. Thanks, Sean Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wazoo Posted January 5, 2005 Share Posted January 5, 2005 It might be easier to go look at the wiki of FAQ at http://spamassassin.apache.org/ Different version / platforms out there, some items handled differently between a 'personal' and a commercial installation. But the details of what you ask will be covered there. Perhaps a more specific question might come up later? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wazoo Posted January 6, 2005 Share Posted January 6, 2005 I looked on that website and the wiki, but could not find anything about the header in question X-Message-Info: Wondering why you didn't include the FAQ in your response .... http://wiki.apache.org/spamassassin/HowScoresAreAssigned A list of the rules and their assigned scores is at tests http://spamassassin.apache.org/tests_3_0_x.html What else might you want?

SeanC Posted January 8, 2005 Author Share Posted January 8, 2005 Wondering why you didn't include the FAQ in your response .... FAQ? Which FAQ? http://wiki.apache.org/spamassassin/HowScoresAreAssigned A list of the rules and their assigned scores is at tests http://spamassassin.apache.org/tests_3_0_x.html What else might you want? 22649[/snapback] Thanks Wazoo that's exactly what I was looking for. Now I just need to figure out why hotmail adds that header to messages it receives (from me to me at least). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wazoo Posted January 8, 2005 Share Posted January 8, 2005 FAQ? Which FAQ? As I recollect, the "FAQ" button was to the right a couple of space from the "Wiki" button. Although one of the pointers took one into the Wiki, the FAQ was broken out into a Content/Topic list .... Thanks Wazoo that's exactly what I was looking for. Now I just need to figure out why hotmail adds that header to messages it receives (from me to me at least). Glad that at least the important part was so easily handled <g> HotMail was easy to deal with when it was HotMail ... Microsoft has made so many "improvements" <g> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeff G. Posted January 10, 2005 Share Posted January 10, 2005 You could always ask Microsoft, but good luck getting an appropriate response. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
