Hello,

I have a little problem with a mail server running sendmail-8.11.6-9.72.1
(Redhat AS 2.1) and mimedefang 2.36. The server usually works ok, but
I have one case where it doesn't seem to be scanned for spam (done by
SpamAssassin). Please see the following part of the email:

X-MIMETrack: Itemize by SMTP Server on DOMINO1/SRV/AEKNO(Release 6.0.2CF1|June 9, 2003) at 31.07.2004 14:47:01

Please note that usually, at least a header "X-Spam-Status" is inserted
in the mail headers, but the "X-Scanned-By" header is present in this
mail. The X-MIMETrack header was inserted by a Lotus Notes server
to which the mails are forwarded by the sendmail server which receives
mails in the first place from the internet.
I have a rule in SpamAssassin's local.cf to give mails from
"sehrgutefreundin at web.de" a score of 20 points:

header WS_FROM_SGFWEBDE>>--From =~ /sehrgutefreundin\@web.de/i
describe WS_FROM_SGFWEBDE>->--E-Mail von "sehrgutefreundin\@web.de"
score WS_FROM_SGFWEBDE>->--20

This rule usually does work, even when I reinject this mail (as present
in the users mbox) into sendmail (port 25). I also don't have any
rules to skip spam scanning for certain senders or recipients or the
like.

Any idea what's going wrong here??


Thanks for any help!!
