Summary: Failing to open auto-whitelist produces unpredictable
scores
Product: Spamassassin
Version: 3.0.0
Platform: Other
OS/Version: other
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P5
Component: Learner
AssignedTo: [email protected]
ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
I had a configuration error in my site-wide setup, so that my local.cf pointed
to a autowhitelist
that could not exist (/etc/spamassassin/mail/autowhitelist, when
/etc/spamassassin/mail didn't
exist, should have been /etc/mail/spamassassin/auowhitelist).
I got a penis enlargement mail that got a score of -85. Piping this mail
through spamc
repeately produced scores of +16 or -85, about 50-50. The difference was in one
test:
USER_IN_WHITELIST.
For some reason I could not reproduce this by piping through spamassassin, and
not even by
piping through another spamd I run for this purpose only, with the -D option to
get more info.
I suspect it has something to do with some values surviving from a previously
processed
message. The debug output did point me to fixing the path to the autowhitelist
file.
After fixing my config, the problem seems to have disappeared.
