Thanks, Scott.  Ok, one more: here is the scoring system I use:

BADHEADERS badheaders x x 8 0
BASE64  base64  x x 4 0
CMDSPACE cmdspace x x 8 0
COMMENTS comments x x 7 0
HELOBOGUS helovalid x x 5 0
IPNOTINMX ipnotinmx x x 0 -3
MAILFROM        envfrom  x x 12 0
NOLEGITCONTENT nolegitcontent x x 0 -5
PERCENT  percent  x x 10 0
REVDNS  revdnsexists x x 4 0
ROUTING  spamrouting x x 2 0
SPAMHEADERS spamheaders x x 3 0
SPFPASS  spf      pass    x       -3      0
SPFFAIL  spf      fail    x       3       0
LOCALCMDSPACE   filter          D:\IMail\Declude\cmdspace.txt   x       0
0

According to the log entry, the message should get 8 for failing CMDSPACE, 0
for failing IPNOTINMX, 0 for failing NOLEGITCONTENT, 3 for failing SPFFAIL,
and 0 for failing LOCALCMDSPACE.  It gets 0 points for passing all of the
remaining tests.  So that totals to 11, not 5.  So how am I misreading this?

Also, how can I find out why it failed the SPFFAIL test?  Since this was for
an internal message, I expected to pass the SPF tests (we have an SPF
record).

Thanks again,

Ben
