I have upgraded to SA 3.1 but i get strange actions...
I think that the SA is now checked before mimedefang filters and skips other
filters...(but i'm not 100% sure about that? how can check?)

I stop about 1000 spam mail per day and get about 3000 legit mail per 
day (some
of it SPAM!!)
I noticed another very anoing problem that I posted before but could NOT
resolved it here...which is GOOD email with spam score less then 5 end-up in
spamdrop instead of delivered to user mailbox!!!!!
and checking the headers it says:
[quote]
X-Spam-Status: No, score=3.1 required=5.0 tests=DATE_IN_FUTURE_96_XX,
        MSGID_FROM_MTA_ID autolearn=no version=3.0.3
[end quote]
this was from the spamdrop mailbox!! why is it there is the spam-status is NO
???

HELP!!!
(David you're my idol...help me before i'm fired... :-))
