I'm still looking for anything I might have screwed up. The emails that leak through are forged to look as though they came from me. Normally, email that I send out *is* filtered by Amavis. I've had several emails get mistakenly spam filtered when I tried to send them. Thank you also to Gary for: $remove_existing_x_scanned_headers = 1; # default is to leave these alone.
