Rules that are part of the dynamically managed default ruleset are activated and deactivated based on our "RuleQA" process, whose operational details can be found at https://ruleqa.spamassassin.org. FORGED_RELAY_MUA_TO_MX appears to be intermittently useful enough based on the submitted scoring logs to get promoted to the active list. I see no reason to override the automated process in this case. The attached header is not usable as evidence of any problem because: 1. It is very old. We would need to see a current example. However, see #3 below 2. Attached to a dummy body, it does not score over 5.0 or anywhere near it. SA is NOT designed with the goal of every rule only hitting spam, it is BY DESIGN that sometimes a rule with a significant score hits non-spam. 3. It is unclear what the actual transit path of the message was, but it clearly was delivered AT yahoo, a circumstance that is not anticipated by the default ruleset. The weirdness that is being caught by that rule is this: Received: from 127.0.0.1 (EHLO mta-meet218.mail.meetic.com) (62.23.1.218) by mta1403.mail.gq1.yahoo.com with SMTP; Wed, 18 Jun 2014 18:05:52 +0000 That is not a sane Received header. It is written by Yahoo, which follows its own undocumented format. A message with that sort of header (asserting a loopback source and a remote client simultaneously) should never be seen anywhere except inside Yahoo or in mail forwarded out of Yahoo using SMTP (which should not hit the active rule.) If you are going to attempt to use SA on mail that has been delivered inside Yahoo like this one, you will need to customize your rules to deal with that usage, as you would need to do for any final delivery point. If you need assistance with how you could do that sort of customization, the best source of help is the SpamAssassin-Users mailing list. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
